Which one has best performance:

P35
P31
X38
nForce680i
nForce750i

What You think?

The top 3. You'd be surprised how well the P31 performs. The best is X38 but not by a great margin.

Will the P35 be better in 3D games than nForce??

it will

If you want PCIe 2 get the x38 or the newer nforce. It's really sick that nvidia re-releases an old product as a new one and the fact that they've released nothing noteworthy for the AMD platform beyond NF 590. The result? They're losing chipset market share.

I ask because maybe the reason i get high temperatures i get on my E8400 is the chipset nForce 750i i got with my P5N-D. And the sickes thing is my case LCD shows CPU temp about 37-40C and when i turn on the PC i have a 50-55C in BIOS for a start!! all soft shows ~45 - idle ~60 - load and whats the most confusing is it shows mb temb at 35-37C while nForces get much more higher right? as proof when i stich case termomether to chipset radiator it shows 50C so this mobo is probably f***** up??!! Right now i think of new one maybe some intel P#% or X38 heard its cooler and only question i have is about performance :-D

hahahahhahahaha i have x38 and it is not cool at all it is fast but it is not cool

at least You can OC i couldn't!! What temperatures CPU/MB did you have on stock settings? Anyway You have As(hit)us too ;-) Heard Gigabyte boards are the best to OC when we talk about P35 or X38

I have Abit IP35-E , great mobo , it given me every OC option i ever needed , and actualy is strongest part in my rig. And ther was no troubles with it at all. Also i seen alot people that OC use this mobo.

But i dunno how to compare chipsets , if you dont have 2 exacly same cofings but with diffrent chips.

My NB gets 39c max under load in the most blistering summer day. Of course intel motherboards have more complicated NBs.
