ASUS P5K-E WiFi-AP Motherboard Review
@ 2008/02/20You wouldn't know by looking, but Intel's a little new at the chipset
business. It's not that they haven't been doing it for decades, but
just that they've never made a business out of it. Until recently.
Intel's 975X did well; i965 blew doors off hinges. And, though it's a
little long in the technospheric tooth, i965's footprint is almost too
big to fill. Without presuming that its successor, P35, is shiny and
better, I've tested what looks like a crowd-pleaser: Asus' P5K-E WiFi-
AP. For less than $150, it's priced right where everyone can reach it,
and comes with the right amount of flash to nab attention from the
rest.
