4.0 out of 5 stars
No floppy cable included, otherwise very satisfied, August 13, 2009
As others have noted this is a quality board. As a several time Asus user, I expect that, but this board is a step above. Chipset heat sink (with fan you can apply if you are setting it up the right way), connectors (SATA, etc) that are in the right spaces for case usage, etc. A few quibbles 1) as I note there is no floppy cable included (even though the board has a floppy connection), 2) (not sure this is Asus' fault, but...) why is there so little space between the PCI connectors for these double slot vid cards? I've got a EVGA 285 that is hogging two slots but is only connected to one. If I had it set up in SLI, I'd only have *1* PCI slot left over. I guess the price you pay for the cool heat sinks around the board.
Still very satisfied with the purchase.
Update 9/9 - wanted to add that I got everything fully functional and for once even the powering down stuff works as it should. A couple of other nits - 1)it is either RAID or straight SATA. This is noted in the forum boards and what not, but is a bit of a pain; and 2) the e-SATA isn't hot plug.
Still very satisfied with the purchase. Runs well you can tweak the heck out of it and it has all the right connections.

Outstanding, a delight, June 3, 2009
Potential customer-
I purchased this "elsewhere" and paid about 15 dollars more. I have been a system builder and enthusiast for about 15 years. I was blown away by this boards features and quality. It even has a Linux splash screen to allow you to access basic devices (email, skype, etc)so you do not have to boot up all components. I am coming from an XFX 680i LT and quad Q6600 to this board and a i7 920 and all I can say is WOW nice and full of bells and whistles. Speed improvement in Crysis is about 15 fps with the same single 8800GTX. My kills went up the day I got this board, what more can I say? ENJOY!

Error in the specs, April 10, 2009
The specs list 2 SAS ports, which was true of the P6T Deluxe, but the SAS controller is been removed in V2.
