ASUS P5K-E/WIFI-AP is one out of the many motherboards based on the popular P35 chipset from Intel, ASUS alone has a very broad lineup of P35 motherboards. It’s not the cheapest P35 card on the market, and its not among the boards with the most features, but somewhere in between. This segment have a tendency to be forgotten, but since more and more customers are looking for affordable boards with good performance, we thought it would be a good idea to see what a motherboard in this segment can do. Looking back, we can only conclude that ASUS did practically everything right when designing P5K-E/WIFI-AP.
“Here we will take a look at one of the boards based on the P35 chipset, ASUS P5K-E. This is card positioned in the middle of the P5K lineup. It doesn’t have as many fancy features as the Extreme/Deluxe flavors, but isn’t as stripped down as the cheapest models. To be honest, do you really need two network cards and heatpipe cooling for the southbridge??”
