Asus P5N32-SLI SE Deluxe & Dual Core

[guinness74]

I know that 680i is the preferred mobo for dual core builds, however, could anyone give me their thoughts on how the ASUS P5N32-SLI SE Deluxe will work with Dual Cores (E6600 to be specific).

I read that the P5N32 was not made for Dual Core, but I would like to get educated on what is lost (performance and capabilities) by using this mobo w/ the E6600.

I am building a rig through ABS (I know building my own would be preferrable, but I also just had a newborn so I don't have much time to build and troubleshoot my own rig - forget the fact that I've never done it before).

Thanks.

You wont be able to oc as high because its based on the nforce 4 chipset, other then that it'll be just like any other chipset in terms of performance.
