TP45 HP Software And Accessories
Biostar includes its Overclock 3 software with the TP45 HP, for controlling voltage and FSB clock speed, along with a couple other utilities.
We were actually surprised to find that the Overclock 3 utility worked quite well, though the lack of advanced timing and ratio controls mean it’s really only intended for fine-tuning.
Biostar’s Hardware Monitor shows the most important voltage and temperature levels, though the temperature readings do appear unrealistically low.
We didn’t use Biostar’s BIOS Update utility, simply because we didn’t want to end up with a dead motherboard. Most brands now offer a utility to update BIOS from Windows, but we’ve corrupted enough motherboards in the not-so-distant past that we still don’t trust this feature.
Biostar also includes a utility for sending trouble messages to its support department.

The TP45 HP doesn’t include many accessories, but there are enough cables to build a fairly elaborate system.

Wait, i think i missed the conclusion... what was the conclusion.....or am i just silly !?
Great review any who, i have been waiting for one of these. I would say go for the P5Q Deluxe!!!!!!!!11
the old E6xx CPU is not good enough to explore the FSB of the new P45 chipset. i seen better review then this in term of hardware. there should be at least a dual core 45nm processor and a 45nm quad processor.
sigh....tom's been lazy with hardware update!
I assume it is a mistake that says the P45 platinum from MSI has an X48 chipset?
so waht about a decent conclusion something like, are these boarfds worth the extra cash over a P35 chipset variant, everything tells me they offer little incentive over the P35, thoughts anyone?
Hello?
Uhm .. 45nm!?
I agree, test with a better (new) CPU(s) 45nm Dual/Quad.
That would be really interesting. This probably means alot to someone that owns the E6xx series CPU which i doubt someone buy if they buy a P45 board.
Methinks Tom has a bit of biassed attitude favouring Asus tbh
