P6N SLI Platinum is the clear "BANG for your Buck" winner!

Results of combined benchmarks for the boards as tested in the AnandTech
P5N32-E SLI Plus article (04-03-07). Sorry for the skewed columns, but no easy table mechanism and crummy rendering of a "<pre>" block of plain text...

Discounting SLI, the list goes P5N32-E SLIplus, EVGA 680i LT or P6N SLI Platinum,
975XBX2, GA-N965?DQ6, P5B-E, losers... However, when you factor in price, the
P6N SLI Platinum is the clear "BANG for your Buck" winner.

Of course, other than the numbers, that's just my opinion.
Aught to be yours.
