The board appears to perform well, but do you really want the wireless capability?

Then why get that board?

[gildan2020]

coz its other features are too cool to let go
namely the sound: i dun intend on grabbing a pci soundcard so this is quite important
and from the reviews i've read so far, it's the best among its competitors
wat do u think?

So why not go for the SLI PLatinum? Same specification as the Diamond but without the WLan/Bluetooth.

Yes, but one of the cool features is the name.

Diamond- say it with me.

It's hawt.

Platinum is a cool name too.
