OCWorkbench has posted an ASRock P4i45PE i845PE Review
In our tests, we ran the board using a P4 3.0C with HT enabled. RAM timings was set to CAS 2, 5-2-2. We ran the usual benchmarks and the Distributed Folding client which stresses the system a lot. It never fails and is stable. This is quite an important criteria of entry level boards as they must be fast and stable as most manufacturers would have cut corners to reduce the costs.
To our surprise, there is life for 845PE as it is just as good as Springdale in some of the benchmarks. When it comes to memory intensive tests, it lags behind just a bit. Do take note that most i845PE won't be able to run 800FSB CPUs properly without modifications.
