Go for a full powered P8Z68-V instead.
P8Z68-V ~RM589 << Not sure if still available or replaced by all Gen3 already as not listed in pricelist
P8Z68-V Gen3 RM689

no point going for gen 3 if just because PCIE 3.0....since benchmark showed that there is no different between PCIE 2.0 and PCIE 3.0 in result biggrin.gif (if TS going for ivy...then i dunno dy)

You need an Ivy Bridge Processor on that board to unlock the Gen3. That's why the first in my list is the original one, but it seems to be no longer listed in Viewnets pricelist


Added on January 17, 2012, 6:19 pmUse the Add to compare list and compare feature on Asus site. Mostly, LE isn't that good for dual Graphics card as the second slot uses 4x.
Also, the power phase on LE is inferior to the non-LE = not so good for overclocking.
LE no bluetooth

If you are just planning light overclocking, you may find the LE sufficient.
