    p5n32-e or p5n-e motherboard?

    Can you guys tell me why the p5n32-e is so much more expensive than the p5n-e when all I can see different is the sli in 16x instead of just 8x in the p5n-e. There must be something more than just that. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.

    P5N32-E; has 3 PCI-express slots running at x16 (becomes 2 PCI-e @ x16 & 1 PCI-e @ x8 when you have a physics card)

    P5N-E; has 2 PCI-express slots running at x8

      Scinto is correct, but I think there are a few more features, than just what is mentioned. One is the 650i chipset, and the other is 680i. Not alot there, but see for yourself, here is a link to a review comparing them both:

      ..just trying to help, I have the P5N32-E SLI 680i, and thinks its an great board. Its over $100 cheaper than the Striker, with the same performance.
