Asus P5gd2

Both Asus and Abit have been fast at making new motherboards for the LGA775. Here is Asus’s latest P5GD2, based on the Grantsdale chipset, from Motherboards.org.

“I’m proud to give my personal recommendation of the ASUS P5GD2 Premium motherboard for those looking to upgrade to the new Intel platform this is definitely one of my early favorites. The packaging for this board alone makes it worth the premium that the board goes for on Pricewatch or Newegg, which is currently about $201. The performance is right on par with the older and bigger brother the P5AD2 and other motherboards in the 915/925 chipsets. If you want the top of the line 915 or 925 motherboard today these two are it. Doc already gave the P5AD2 an Editor’s choice and I’m giving it’s slightly less expensive brother the same award.”
