You mean more than one x16 PCIe lane, right? That's the one edge a 975 board
has over a 965.
As far as the rest, that is simply not correct. Performance? It's the only
intel chipset that officially supports DDR2-800. Overclocking headroom?
That's completely based on the manufacturer's design, nothing to do with the
chipset. ICH8 is only found on 965 and NOT the 975. PATA is an option on
many 965 boards. And find me a 965 that *doesnt* have ethernet.

More than 16 PCIe lanes, performance, overclocking headroom... (the rest
are
really ICH8/R:) any PATA channels, Ethernet...
