    What is FSB??? What is 1333 FSB??

    Ok anyways, Mike you said something about patching SP1 disk into SP2, any idea?

    I looked at those Gigabyte motherboards, but the price just doesn't seem right, I'd like at least 8GB of RAM supported.

    Does this motherboard support all SP?

    or

    same thing

    or I dunno but less expensive

    Omg darn, what is it that I look for in those motherboards?! I think I am acting too much like a noob. But thanks for helping me -_-

    I thought you could use the 1333mhz FSB ones with any board? Besides, you can always 'put' the FSB to 1333mhz!

    Yeah, the FSB is not 1333. Besides P5B DX, I have another consideration, P5K Deluxe, heard of them?

    And as you can see, E6750 is indeed 1333MHz. Does this P5K support all XP SP?

    I don't know that much about the Asus P5B/P5K boards, but I do know that the DS3 (at least the latest revision) is a very good board. As for the 1333mz FSB I'm sure it was added in a recent revision.

    You see, as I said it's open box --> used. I want to find revision 3.3, and then newegg is not the site where I am buying it... it's infonec.ca. And I can't find that Gigabyte rev 1.3 anywhere else let alone new.

    New ones will be Rev 3.3 most of the time.
    EDIT: Rev 1.3 came out later and the only difference is the sound chip. Rev 1.3 should be fine for you.

    I must admit I'm having trouble tracking that version down too.

    That's not the same board, I don't know what the P35 ones are like. Why can you only use infonec?

    That is the newer P35 chipset. I don't know if it does support XP, the P35 chipset is new, so not many user comments on those kinds of boards.
