Difference betweem GA-P35C-DS3R & GA-P35-DS3R

[gibbsrs]

Hello all:

Quick question: Is the only difference between these two boards is that the P35C board supports both DDR2 & DDR3? From what I can tell from the specs that is the only difference. Can anyone confirm that?

yes , but from what i have seen in sites and this forum, the P35 DS3R is a better OCer

I think the GA-P35C-DS3R comes with more cables. Can't compare because I don't have a GA-P35-DS3R. Mind you, even the P35C doesn't have enough, I got 4 SATA cables and I have 5 SATA devices

If u get the P35C-DS3R make sure u dont get ver 1.1. It has numerous problems. I just sent mine back because it died after about a week.

If u dont belive me, just research it here on these boards.

the C has to introduce aditional fsb latencies to allow for both ddr2 and ddr3, making it worse for overclockign.
