Asus P4P800S

Yes it does.

The Asus site says:
Socket 478 for Intel Pentium 4/Celeron up to 3.2GHz+
FSB: 800 / 533 / 400 MHz
Chipset: Intel 865PE
Storage: 2 x UltraDMA 100/66/33 and 2 x Serial ATA, RAID 0, 1

Be carefull though. To attain the 533 FSB throughput you have to have a Serial ATA-133 hard drive.

Which one to recommend? Depends on what you want to do with it. The price difference between them is negotiable, so I would get the deluxe.

Where'd you hear that? I'm running a P4 at 800 FSB with two ATA-100 HDDs. Not that they would be related anyway... :huh:

Yikes, let me rephrase that statement. Thanks for catching that Aaron.

Be carefull though. To attain the "full benifit" of the 533 FSB throughput you have to have a Serial ATA-133 hard drive. Just a one line statement trying to simplify a technical subject.

You will not attain the full benifit of the FSB 533 throughput with the ATA-100 hard drive vs the Serial ATA-133 hard drive. The transfer rate between the hard drive and the interface for a Serial ATA-133 is 150 MB/sec. The two channel UltraDMA IDE ATA-100 (on the board) provides a maximum data throughput at a rate of 100 MB/sec.

When selecting a high-end motherboard/CPU/RAM interface it is important to include a hard drive capable of receiving and transfering the data throughput from the interface. This transfer rate or throughput is between the interface and the hard drive. The transfer rate for ATA 100 disk is around 62 MB/sec and around 82 MB/sec for ATA 133 disk.

I'm using a P4P800 Deluxe. If you plan to use RAID get the deluxe if not, go for the regular version.
