    These are them:

    Asus P5Q Pro
    Asus P5Q Deluxe
    Asus P5Q3 Deluxe Wifi-AP

    Need a board for my Core 2 CPU and I'm running out of time on Ebay. All the reviews are much of a muchness so I need some quick opinions.

    My current (broken) board is a P5W DH Deluxe. Are the above superior to my current board, or not?

    I like to play games!

    Thanks,
    Tom.

    No it is not superior. Its the P35 chipset compared to P5Q P43 chipset I believe.

    You don't need the WiFi Im assuming. Grab the P5Q Pro. Also what CPU you using ?

    Asus is top notch company, from their P2B in 1998 to their P7 boards.

    Are you overclocking? Because these boards even your old P5W are a safe heaven for OCing your rig. Also remember to enable Transaction Booster in BIOS ,, speeds up the RAM latency. Can you link us to the ebay add or something. thx, gl
