Layout and I/O
The layout is clearly arranged. All connectors are well placed and accessible.

Altogether there are six memory slot on the P6T Deluxe which officially support DDR3-1066/1333 with up to 12 GByte/s transferrate. If you want to overclock the memory subsystem ASUS says DDR3-1600 is also possible.
