As you yourself said it, the Rampage is a "Luxury" Board.... implies, has a lot of stuff that is not of any day to day use.... :)
Whereas the P6X58D-E will give you the max power for everything implies it's a workhorse....
The Rampage series are for gamers......
And since you need the board for more PS & 3D Rendering..... it's a better board to go for.....

And from what I think I just read in your third post, you already have the Rampage :)........ Don't know what to say...
Since you already have the Rampage let me tell you one think it's not a bad buy at all, it's just overkill for your needs......
Basically a lot of guys out there will kill for that board.... so no sweat..... it's good that you have it.....

hello,,sorry for been posted so many notes, i'm new hear and thougt that the topis of board and asus were diferent, and I was traying to optain and cover a lot of infromation.
, i'll buy the p6x58d-e,, every one is telling me that is better,, the reason of the daut in picking de rampage is my brother, he plays in the computer a lot,,,,
So,, naw you say me de rampage y for that,,, mi cuestion is,,, What do i need to do for use this feature in the board?,, is a default configuraion, ,,,,,, so this rampage is better for gaming jost like that?
But, the most importantfor mi is to work whit 3d max and photoshop,,, and if you think p6x58d-e is better for that i'll get that one.
 
Excellent choice. But photoshop and 3D Max performance does not depend on the quality of your motherboard. It is more dependent on the GPU, CPU and the monitor. Since you are getting the X58 board, your processor would be quite powerful. So your monitor and GPU is important.

thanks for the link,,350 is the budget for board and ram,,, i already have gpu and cpu.
I aready now the board is not that important for 3d max, but for gaming, so ill go for the rampage,,
I like to now what to do in order to use the features in the board for gaming.
It is somesing for default or i need to buy somesing else ,, like another video car for and SLi or Crosfire?
And if is that, the money for that is apart from the initial budget.
thanks
 
Yes, if you want to go gaming at high resolutions with all the eye candy than a good single highend card will do..... or then if the budget will not permit you can CF or SLI two lower cards that fall into your budget.....
What is the current GPU that you already have?
For setting on the Mobo, there not much in terms of setting it up especially for gaming, the standard settings work fine. It's only if you are going to OC that you'd need to mess with the BIOS setting on the Mobo... nothing else.....
