According to the Asus website the difference seems to be that the Deluxe has everything the SE has, plus Firewire, Wifi, and a tool to play audio CDs when the computer's in standby.

I'm sticking to Deluxe at the moment :)

Re: I'm going to build a PC
 
I have found this interesting review of a motherboard that supports BOTH agp and pci-e AND supports both socket 754 & 939 making it a very flexible and future proof alternative. Any body have any input on this board ? A review here http://www.anandtech.com/mb/showdoc.aspx?i=2524&p=1 puts the board up against the Asus Fatal1ty (considered to be one of the best gaming boards out at the moment). This motherboard costs about £20 less than the board cookie is looking at, and means a better processor can be had with the savings made.

Regards.

ramrod just wants to inflate his ego a bit...;)

there is also an ongoing saga of my computer building somewhere, mine is more chaotic with parts buying and stuff though..

i *still* can't see why you would need 12 drive bays... what are you, a market stall dvd merchant? ;)

Heh, you've never met Ramrod, have you, Dave? Imagine Rodney from Only Fools & Horses, with a suitcase stuffed full of DVDs.... and that's Rammy :D

Oy! Behave! :mad: :D

I don't need 12 drive bays, the case had other features that appealed to me. :D

balls did it :p: you just wanted a bigger case than everyone else ;)

why don't you go get a full server room next time? then you will have even more room for your dvd fabrication unit :p:

zinglebarb >> what on earth do you have/do that takes up 12 drives?!

Cookie is not going to be interested in that! That rig is 4 months old! Those specs are hopelessly outdated. It's time for an upgrade Rammy... ;)

Edit: It should still be ok for patience though...

Thats why I pointed him to it--the parts should be a whole lot cheaper now!
