Asus P5N-E SLI Motherboard Review (nForce 650i)

Affordable, but powerful, the nForce 650i-based Asus P5N-E SLI offers high performance and impressive overclocking, and support the latest Intel C2D processors. In this review it receives a Best Buy Award:

Apart from the high priced motherboards for enthusiasts, ASUS also offer very affordable solutions for entry level users. The Asus P5N-E SLI is one of those solutions and comes at a retail price of around €99, making it very appealing indeed. This board is based on nVidia’s 650i chipset and while it was slightly slower overall compared with the nVidia’s 680i LT based motherboard, we were quite happy with its performance. It costs much less and the performance differences with the higher priced EVGA 680i LT will not be noticed by entry level users.

..The Asus P5N-E SLI gives good performance and will keep you company for a long time. There are some drawbacks, that may trouble enthusiast users, but at that price we really couldn’t ask for more.
