Difference in these MOBO's?

To simplify my life I've decided to narrow my mobo choices down to ASUS but I'll be darned if I can see any difference in these two boards except the price.

and this one
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131641&nm_mc=OTC-pr1c3grabb3r&cm_ mmc=OTC-pr1c3grabb3r-_-Motherboards+-+Intel-_-ASUS-_-13131641#spec
What should I be looking for and what don't I need? Or should I look at something else?
So far I've purchased a CM 932 HAF X case, EVGA GTX 470 card, 1000w CM PSU, WD Caviar Blk WD2001FASS 2tb 64mb cache
and a 300g Velicoraptor OS drive.
Can't afford a raid card set up. Will stick with 12g of ram for now due to available funds.
I'll probably do some mild OC'ing and may go to 24g of ram when I can afford it.
Am leaning towards 4 of the WD 1002 FAEX drives w/64mb cache.
Your help is appreciated

Go here, to ASUS's website, and do a more thorough comparison:
http://usa.asus.com/ProductGroup2.aspx?PG_ID=mKyCKlQ4oSEtSu5m
I am considering a very similar build, but am leaning more towards the ASUS Rampage III so at such time as the 256 GB SATA III SSD comes down in price I can dive into that, primarily for the OS drive.  I am still trying to rationalize buying the SSD now - and that's hard to do, even with prices dropping, but the thought of having to reinstall Win7 following the SSD upgrade is pushing me to consider now rather than later.
On the 12 GB memory, I would suggest 4x3 rather than 6x2.  A little pricier up front, but you will have the option to add rather than discard and replace.
Any throughts on optical drives for that system?

    My feeling here is that simply changing join syntax and case vs decode issues is not going to give any significant improvement in performance, and as Tubby points out, there is not a lot to go on. I think you are going to have to investigate things along the line of parallel query and index vs full table scans as well any number of performance tuning methods before you will see any significant gains. I would start with the Performance Manual as a start and then follow that up with the hard yards of query plans and stats.
    Alternatively, you could just set the gofast parameter to TRUE and everything will be all right.

  • Difference between these Thunderbolt cables for an iMac?

    What is the difference between these two Thunderbolt cables for connecting Thunderbolt harddrive docking station to an iMac?
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD862ZM/A/apple-thunderbolt-cable-05-m
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD861ZM/A/apple-thunderbolt-cable-20-m
    Thanks!

    Along the lines of this topic, does anyone know whether Mini DisplayPort cables are usable for Thunderbolt? Here's one, for example, that's cheaper than Apple's $29 cable:
    http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B009NE77TQ/
    I would be concerned about (at least) two things:
    1. Can it handle the speed?
    2. Does it have the right circuit?
    It's possible that if it *seems* to work in a thunderbolt application, you might still run into trouble with intermittent data failure if it's not up to the task.
    Thanks for any thoughts.

  • Color differences between these two files?

    Could someone please tell me the color differences between these two files? What are the differences in general of these two files and how do I make a file identical to the blue cancel button?
    I am working with signature pads and the BLUE CANCEL image works, but the other GREEN image does not. Both are 8-bit .bmp files... HELP!

    #1, obviously, would be to connect a mic that doesn't require phantom power.
    And #2 comes with a 6 ft. USB cable, so you may not need a bunch more cables. Maybe just one standard XLR to connect a mic to it.

    Which one is the best?
    Thks

    Hi stevekho,
    Besides obvious differences in the specs, I think it's more like which one best meets your requirement because one is an ultraportable with 12 inch screen and the other performance thinkpad with 14 inch display. X201 doesn't come with optical drive, whereas T410 does. There may be other differences too like internal features etc. in order to find out I would suggest consulting this:- ThinkPad Notebooks
    If I were you I would read the reviews first, and decide based on which one would greatly accommodate my needs, you can read reviews at following links:-
    Lenovo ThinkPad X201 Review
    Lenovo ThinkPad T410 Review
    Hope it helps.
    Maliha (I don't work for lenovo)
    ThinkPads:- T400[Win 7], T60[Win 7], IBM 240[Win XP]

  • Whats the difference between these versions of photoshop?

    First of all to make things clear I want to mention this first that I lives in Pakistan and Adobe doesn't support my region so in order to buy the Adobe Photoshop CC I have to contact the authorized resellers, after contacting them and asking for a invoice proposal for Adobe Photoshop CC, they send me several invoice proposals (per user team liscense). But I just got in a trouble as these proposals are offering Photoshop CC different versions so its like kinda making me double mind, i am just confused which to buy as prices are differ too and kinda noticeable. As for making my intentions clear I also wanna mention that I am looking for Single App Liscense i mean i just wanna buy Photoshop CC thats it. But for sure its not gonna be that photography version nor student one. Also i wanna know that whats the difference between these two versions and also tell me the pros and cons.
    So please help me choose which one is better for me as I am really confused with it.
    Here are the links
    Note: You will have to translate these pages into english
    Link one:
    [65224660BA01A12] ราคาพิเศษ จำหน่าย Photoshop CC ALL Multiple Platforms Multi Asian Languages Licensing Subscription Mo…
    Link two:
    [65226001BA01A12] ราคาพิเศษ จำหน่าย Photoshop CC ALL Multiple Platforms Multi Asian Languages Licensing Subscription Mo…
    I've attached screenshots too

    The features in both of the Photoshop CC are identical, there is a difference in price because, the higher priced is the original Photoshop price, the less priced is the promotional priced Photoshop CC eligible only if you have CS3 or later version of Adobe creative suite product.
    Hope this answers your question.

  • What is the difference between these two instant ink printers?

    Looking to get one of the HP instant ink printers from Best Buy. Either the Envy 4500 or the Envy 5530. There is a $20 diference and I did a side-by-side comparison of them on the Best Buy site, but the only difference I can notice is the 5530 seems to have more memory than the 4500 (128MB vs 32MB).
    Print speeds and resolutions seem to be the same. The cheaper one (4500) also seems to be able to do two-sided printing & reduction/enlargement (which I would have thought to be on the more expensive mode). So are there any other real differences between these two or have I pretty much covered them all?

    HI - great question, you identified a few of the differences.  Some additional differences are:
    4500 has a monochome display that is not touch enabled (you have to use scroll buttons on the side of the screen)
    5300 has a touch enabled color display
    Both printers can do duplexing (printing on both sides) and both have wireless.  
    We are excited about Instant Ink  and hope you enjoy the service & whichever printer you chose!  
    Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP

    ENABLE Clause
    Specify ENABLE to execute subsequent statements in the session in parallel. This is the default for DDL and query statements.
    •DML: DML statements are executed in parallel mode if a parallel hint or a parallel clause is specified.
    •DDL: DDL statements are executed in parallel mode if a parallel clause is specified.
    •QUERY: Queries are executed in parallel mode if a parallel hint or a parallel clause is specified.

    The word ENABLE does just what you would expect it to do: it ENABLEs (allows) parallel to be used. Parallel will be used if, as the doc quote says, 'a parallel hint or a parallel clause is specified'.
    The word FORCE does just what you would expect it to do: it FORCEs parallel to be used. As the doc quote says 'FORCE forces parallel execution of subsequent statements in the session. If no parallel clause or hint is specified, then a default degree of parallelism is used.'.
    With FORCE parallel WILL be used. With ENABLE parallel MAY be used.
    If you still don't understand the difference then please explain what it is you are having trouble with.

  • What is the difference of these two Coherence client command?

    What is the difference of these two Coherence client command? Kill and destroy
    Are they same command?
    Thank you

    Hi,
    The Kill command shuts down the current com.tangosol.net.CacheService. This does not affect other service members if they are in a cluster.
    The Destroy command will remove the NamedCache completely from the cluster, causing other cluster members to receive an IllegalStateException if they are holding on to a reference to the same cache and try to do any operation on that cache.
    you can try using this command and check.

  • What is the Difference Between these IF statements

    Hello
    Can someone tell me the difference between these two IF statements.
    -- IF STATEMENT 1--
    IF v_transcode not in ('A','C','D') THEN
    raise_application_error (-20000, 'Error Invalid Transcation Code');
    END IF;
    -- IF STATEMENT 2 --
    IF v_transcode <> 'A' AND v_transcode <> 'C' AND v_transcode <> 'D' THEN          
    raise_application_error (-20000, 'Error Invalid Transcation Code');
    END IF;
    Thanks

    Your if condition wherein you do
    v_transcode <> 'A' and v_transcode <> 'C' and v_transcode <> 'D'.
    I would think this is more better in terms of performance, because if the first clause (v_transcode <> 'A') fails nothing else needs to be evaluated, and it can skip the if condition there itself,
    but in case of
    v_transcode not in ('A', 'C','D'),
    it has to scan through the entire list.
    On the other side, if you have just 2 or 3 values to compare this makes sense, otherwise we may have to use the in operator.
