Looks like a rock solid choice for P4's.

Nice looking board, asus always puts out quality products time after time. I will most likely stick with them for all my future m/b purchases. Although, It just kills me to see such a nice board being released without agp8x. They will release revision 2 in a couple of weeks with it probably, instead of just including it with this release.

On a side note, it was interesting see who was taking top honors in the some of the benches besides the RDram solutions, b/c we know they ownz everyone. I know SIS hasnt been everyones favorite chipset in the past but the one i have (645dx) has been 100% stable with some good features including ddr400 support (unofficially). I would not hesitate to buy SIS again either.

SIS LIVES

I've been kinda disenchanted with RDRAM lately myself. I planned on upgrading from 256mb to 512mb by the end of summer, but I'll be damned it RDRAM prices aren't higher than DDR and not showing signs of getting cheaper.

I don't know. I just can't stomach buying 256mb of RDRAM for the price of 512mb of DDR. I was hoping the price drops in RDRAM that were rampant earlier this year would persist, but they haven't.

And PC1066 is just rediculous...
