Asus's G35 motherboard

Asus is launching a proper Micro-ATX board for Core 2 processors. It is called the P5E-VM HDMI and like the name implies, it has got an HDMI port with graphics provided by the GMA X3500 integrated core. The graphics core supports DX10, though performance is nothing extraordinary.
It sports a 4-phase power supply, support for DDR2-800, PCIe x16 slot, two PCIe x1 slots, a very useful IDE port and 6 SATA 3Gb/s ports.
1333FSB is part of the deal and support for 45nm Core 2s is also in. The 4-phase power is better than most boards like these and may even allow for some quad-core overclocking without the circuitry overheating.
