I've currently got an Asus P5Q Deluxe board.
I was looking to move to a Gigabyte UD3 variant, and it got me wondering, if the memory requirement was for DDR3 (which it was on the UD3P - until I realised that for some reason it's not available in the uk), what would be the point when there is the new i5 / i7 1156 boards?
If the only component on the board you were going to port was the cpu (s775), and you were thinking of buying mobo and ddr3 ram; why not just upgrage to i5 / i7?
I know that there's always adopters of the new technology, but is P45 truly dead?
