_____________
First up on the review bench is the top model in the Asus P6T desktop family, the P6T Deluxe V2, it competes against two high performance boards from Foxconn, the FlamingBlade and BloodRage GTI. Read on to find out which best meets your requirements in regards to performance and functionality.

Well it sure is nice to see 3 solid products fare so nicely in testing. Very close but the Foxconn boards look really good considering the difference in price point in comparison to the ASUS board.

Nice roundup. True that disinguishing all the different P6T boards is challenging. Foxconn's software layout looks tacky indeed; like some cheap free online RPG interface. Doesn't fit the high end theme.

I'm eager to see a micro atx roundup with the new boards from MSI and EVGA. But that's probably in the works already?

im sorry if i missed it, but what is the diff between the p6t v2 & v1?
since the intel X58 board is in the same price range, how does it stack up to the products? sorry for the questions, but if someting goes my way i might be getting an i7 setup in a month or 2. & i had been leaning towards the intel board(durability & stability r prime considerations for me), but am now thinking about that asus mb.
& ty for a well laid out, informative review

Grate review as always and am glade to see that foxcoon is coming up nicely but Foxconn's software layout still needs some work and so does their naming system .
