    Difference between DFI P45-T2RS boards

    I was wondering what exactly are the major differences between the following boards:
    DFI JR P45-T2RS
    DFI DK P45-T2RS
    DFI Lanparty DK P45-T2RS Plus

    I need a board that is good for overclocking (a Q6600 CPU), supports crossfire, and supports DDR2-1066, which all of them do. Unless I am missing something, all of theses boards are more or less the same... any ideas to why one would be the best ?

    JR is uATX

    Plus is better..because it's plus I think it has a couple of extra SATA ports and possibly something else i can't remember. The non plus full ATX version isn't worth getting though afaik.

    thanks for the ultra fast reply

    so i did miss something important after all dropping the JR (which i am guessing now stands for junior) board from this list, is there a significant difference between the DK P45-T2RS and the plus one? the price difference is negligible anyway so I guess the plus one makes more sense, but it would be good to know exactly why.

    The plus has an extra 2 SATA ports and has a newer revision of the northbridge and comes with smart connectors for easy connection of the front panel cables. All in all better to get the plus especially with the price difference being so small.
