I had 2 of the P5N32-E SLI(680i) boards and now have the P5N32-E SLI Plus (650i hybrid) and would definately recommed the Plus version.I had nothing but trouble from the 2 P5N32-E SLI boards.

What am i getting with the striker that im not getting on the other models other than the LCD.

Is performance good? and is it noticble?

Striker also has the external SATA connectors taht the other models don't have. But that's about it.

i did read a review that ASUS striker won in scores. You pay for what u get.

Well, it depends on when the reviews were written.

I have eSATA on my P5NE-SLI.

The only way I would go Striker over what I have now, is for a high powered SLI system. Which I may never have, since they still haven't gotten around to making DualView SLI compatible. That review just shows that in reality, 99% of users won't ever notice the difference in performance.

if you have the money get the striker, if not get the p5n32-e sli plus (see my sig).

edit: if you go 680i in any form make sure you water cool the north bridge.

I've been using a P5B Deluxe (Wifi) since August...I love that freakin thing...My favorite part is when OCing, to reset the bios you can just turn the power supply switch to "OFF" for 30 seconds and it resets

No more opening the case and flipping the jumper or pulling out the CMOS battery
