The two full x16 PCI-Express lanes make a large difference in Call of Duty 2, but little else in the other games at this resolution. Even with just a single card and still running at PCI-Express Gen-1 bandwidth with a 7900 GTX we see the P5E3 Deluxe WiFi-AP @n is consistently as fast or faster than the two DDR3-based P35 boards we're comparing it to.
