Both the boards are dated now .. Get yourself a 650 i SLI/non sli ready boards for Asus [7k~] or XFX [5.1k~] And XFX 1 is a gr8 ocer .. Supports 1333 MHZ FSB .. So its worth buying it leave Idea abt the 2 mentioned above. And yes 650i supports PATA ;)

Yep and its supports 1333 Mhz cpu so you can Add quad to it :) But do not think you can add Penryn to it :p

What is the major advantage of XFX 650i Ultra over P5B Deluxe. Surely P5B Dlx will have more features won't it? Or did I waste 5k?

See XFX is i non SLI 650 i board give best value for money at 5k it wont hurt you financially :) While Asus 1 is SLi capable and provide good VFM not the best :) So if you plan to SLI asus else XFX. But in my opinion no 1 put SLI so better be off with XFX ;)
