this might sound like a dumb question considering that these 2 mobos r the latest, but do the asus P5W DH Deluxe which is 975X n the asus P5B Deluxe which is 965P support SATA 2? i'm askin this as the specs in the website don't mention anything abt SATA2 but only SATA.
help me decide.......

ok a few quick answers.
1. Intel for the past 5 years have been full of crap and unfortunately you've fallen victim to their brainwashing. HIGH FREQUENCY IS NOT ALL IMPORTANT. the Core 2 Duo marks Intel's realisation of that fact, while the clock speed may not be all that high it is highly efficient and does far more at a lower clock speed. even if it were only a single core it is still more powerful than a Pentium 4, the fact that it is dual core is just a bonus.
2. the memory latencies are fairly irrelevant to an Intel processor using their Netburst technology. this is because the transfers between the processor>memory controller>memory already have a high latency so a little higher latency on memory is insignificant. what does matter more so is the frequency of that memory. this can help to overcome the problems caused by a high latency memory controller. therefore you should try for higher frequency memory rather than lower latency.
