Previous LANPARTY boards have shone by taking the best parts of a core logic and augmenting it with carefully chosen extras, often creating the must-have motherboard. The intrinsic problem facing the £160 925X-T2, though, is from competitors who have caught up DFI in both features and bundle. ASUS' 900-series boards are a case in point. They out-specify the 925X-T2 in almost every area and the P5GD2 (i915P) Premium, priced at £135, matches Alderwood performance and offers extra goodies to boot.

There's plenty of decent 900-series boards doing the rounds right now, and DFI's 925X-T2 is decent. The problem is, as far as I can see, that other manufacturers now offer a better overall package at similar price levels.
