Asus P5WDG2-WS Premium Edition.
The main difference between the P5WD2-E and the P5WDG2-WS is that the latter model targets the professional user and workstation segment. As a result, the P5WDG2-WS comes with two PCI-X-133 interfaces, and features an 8-phase voltage regulator. The downside is in the area of multimedia support - the audio chip supports only one rather then three Dolby modes.
