#4,#7,#9 - the first requirement for Doom 3 under System Requirements is: "3D Hardware Accelerator Card Required - 100% DirectX® 9.0b compatible 64MB Hardware Accelerated video card and the latest drivers".
It will be interesting to see if more mobos like this will come out. It definitely fills a gap in the market, probably to Intel's chagrin. I'm curious if the new P4 F-series (64-bit enabled) would work on this board.
Its irrelevant to people in the U.S. It cant be bought here easily, if at all. I suppose it can be bought online from NCIX in Cananda, but they say special order. I have owned Soltek - they are good boards, but their support is non existent. Also note they are not even listed in Pricewatch brands, search4hardware.com shows pics, but no stores selling it.

I was looking to pick this board up but it isn't on newegg's site anymore, know of anywhere else to get it?Wesley Fink - Wednesday, August 18, 2004 - link
#19 - This has been corrected several times, and it is corrected again. Here's hoping our Document Engine is kinder to corrections this go-round.bhtooefr - Wednesday, August 18, 2004 - link
Another mistake - the Soltek's memory speed is listed as a DDR2 speed (in the specs on the board), whereas it's a DDR board.That P5P800 does look interesting, BTW. (Not that I would bite - Intel's price-performance isn't good at all)

#10 - We made it to 265 FSB with a 2.8 Prescott. We talk about this briefly at the bottom of Page 3.#11 - The incorrect reference is removed.
