ASUS P5B-E PLUS LGA 775 motherboard

The ASUS P5B-E PLUS is an ATX Intel motherboard built around the Intel P965 chipset and the LGA 775 socket. It supports DDR2 memory up to a maximum of 8GB. This board suits builders assembling or repairing a legacy desktop platform.

System maintainers and legacy hardware enthusiasts

This product suits system maintainers and legacy hardware enthusiasts who need a direct replacement board for an existing LGA 775 system. Builders who require a new, current-generation platform with modern memory standards or newer CPU sockets should look elsewhere.

LGA 775 socket and 8GB DDR2 maximum

The LGA 775 socket and the 8GB DDR2 memory ceiling are the defining constraints. If your processor and memory modules match these specifications, the board will fit the build; if you need a different socket or higher memory capacity, this is not the correct part.

Questions about this item

Does the ATX form factor of the ASUS P5B-E PLUS fit my chassis?

The board follows the ATX layout, so it mounts in any chassis that accepts ATX motherboards using the standard nine-hole pattern.

What is the correct way to seat the LGA 775 processor and the DDR2 modules, and which step is most often missed?

Open the socket lever, align the CPU notches, lower the lever until it clicks, then press each DDR2 module straight down until both side latches snap shut — the latch click is the step most installers skip.

Which replaceable part on the ASUS P5B-E PLUS will need attention after several years of use?

The metal battery on the board maintains BIOS settings and clock time; when the system starts losing those settings, the battery should be replaced.
