Guys,

I have ordered an ASUS Striker (not extreme), I was wondering what the differences if any are?

I've tried all the review sites and can only find the Extreme version, not a major problem, I'm just curious! It arrives on Saturday, so if I need to I might have time to change to the other one!

Thanks in advance!

There is only one board the "Striker Extreme"

Whoever you ordered the "Asus Striker" from just left out the "Extreme" part. It's the same board.

Edit: Guess I was wrong! You learn something new every day...

The link takes you to the page on the website I bought from, I thought that the difference might be to do with 1333mhz fsb support, but both are quoted as supporting........

Thanks Andy, I obviously wasn't looking hard enough!
Not enough for me to be worried, £15 saved then, the case won't have a window for the internal LED's, no desperate need for eSATA and I've managed without the back panel lights for this long....
Thanks for finding the info, hope your not bored all day!!!
