Both the Asus P5K3 Deluxe WiFi-AP and the Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3R are well-laid-out, highend motherboards with good build quality. Both support the latest Intel processors and also DDR3 memory at 1333 MHz, meaning they're quite future-proof. While the Gigabyte board supports up to eight SATA devices and one EŽSATA, the ASUS has Wi-Fi onboard, along with support for CrossFire. As far as performance goes, these were almost neck-and-neck, and a little behind the Reigning Champion. At the final tally, these stood too close to each other, and it was only fair to award both of them second place in this category.
