    I like this motherboard for a lot of reasons, but outstanding performance isn't one of them. It was a surprise to me that Asus' own G965 outperformed this brand-new board in every application test. I re-benched both to be certain. I console myself with the knowledge that the margin between the two isn't particularly noticeable, and, while playing games, the P5K-E WiFi-AP came out ahead.

    While the Linux benchmarks from these two Intel P35 motherboards were very close, the Gigabyte GA-P35-DS4 had a slight lead. From the OpenGL gaming benchmarks to RAMspeed, the P35-DS4 had just inched past the P5K-E. On the other hand, the ASUS P5K-E had higher overclocking abilities and it had integrated 802.11g WiFi, which had worked out of the box with Ubuntu 7.10. When it comes to the motherboard layout for each of them, we had no real issues with either one and they... Read more
