Strengths: Don't know want post at all!!! Have to flash to get board to see processor with old CPU I do not even own!!! Than once that is done it crashes and bios settings change on their own!!
Weakness: Everything so far!!!
Run away from ASUS!!! DO a Google search and find out how F'd up this board is....DO NOT BUY!!!! Support just tells you to flash to latest BIOS which does nothing to fix issues and stability. I spent 3K on parts for this!!!!
Strengths: It will post
Weakness: ..it WILL hang!!!
Let me start by saying… go to asus site and check out their forums under the P5N-T Deluxe. The board was/is not ready to be released!! I had so many problems with the install of windows, it was horrib
Strengths: Many
Weakness: Other then the NIC, nothing
I read a couple of reviews here and I guess im the lucky one. Although I have to RMA this board for a dead NIC after 11 months. That is the only issue I have had. I did read in advance some of ASUS RAM recommendations but other then that I have had no problems
Strengths: If you are one of the few that can even get this MB to post and let you get through an OS install, then it has some good features for the few minutes it will run.
Weakness: DOES NOT WORK!!! I've never had a MB that needed to have OC features turned on and overvoltages made to even get through an OS install. This board is totally unstable and useless.
I highly advise avoiding this MB. It as had (2) BIOS releases in just the few days that I have owned it. None of them made anything better. You are particularly screwed if trying to run a Q6600. This thing just locks up at random. They also did not do a good job in the box layout as you will see when you get your MB and find the same heatsink bent as I did twice from 2 different vendors and 2...
