Asus P5NSLI (nForce 570 SLI)

Zitat

Understandably, the consumer in the market for this motherboard won't be thinking about selling a kidney to buy a Core 2 Extreme X6800 CPU, but to directly compare the other boards we've tested and that are no longer with us we had to keep consistency. Obviously, the kind of person looking to buy the P5NSLI will probably be looking at pairing a Core 2 Duo E6300 with it. Those will give you a cheap and powerful combination ideally suited for gaming at high resolutions. If you are looking to treat the P5NSLI as a workstation for your video, picture and audio encoding then you are obviously going to loose out considerably more than others but this board is aimed at budget gaming and that's exactly what it does well.

[...]Application stability is very good once you find the sweet spot, but anything over that and it goes a bit dubious. It won't hurt to put a heatsink on the southbridge and possibly find something bigger for the northbridge if you intend to try to tweak this board. However, even the nForce4 Intel Edition motherboards did DDR2-667, yet the P5NSLI will not sit with a satisfactory stability when 2GB of memory is installed. Having said that, the nForce 570 SLI Intel Edition chipset uses the same northbridge as the nForce4 SLI Intel Edition chipset. So we can only assume that Asus has memory related issues in its current BIOS revision.
