So which 680i board are you waiting for?

[Haltech]

I think im going to go with the DFi as much as the Asus one is tempting. Im more steamrolled by the prices however.. Is this because Intel charges Nvidia royality fees or something?

[DeToNaToR.cl]

DFI or Abit

[lowfat]

DFI or Abit
exactly.

i won't even consider asus after their craptastic bioses they are releasing for the P5B-D.

i dont think its intel charging royalities i think its because they are just released i remmber the p5b deluxe was around 250 when it was first released now its down to bellow 200. im going to get the p5N32-E once it comes down in price 300 is wayyy to much for it.

[Okda]

DFI's ......

[Quentin]

DFI :banana:

[Ibinco]

Asus Striker, i can get it for 250 Euro here in Holland, DFI will probably be released december and honestly i got tired of waiting. If they would have thrown me a freaking bone over the past months i would have stuck it out.

[Knight]

The one that functions right. :rolleyes:

[The Nemesis]

DFI or Abit
Ditto

[nn_step]

DFI or Epox

[Quentin]

and why not a motherboard with 650i ? :toast:

[JoeBar]

If i'll jump on the 680i train. Asus Striker will be my ticket... :)

[mykeos]

Ibinco:do stores in Holland know when to expect the Striker released?If they're taking preorders,it could take morethan a month for the boards to actually hit the shelves...?...

[dinos22]

whichever one makes a board without vdroop and higher vcore and vdimm options :D

[Trice]

RD600 before I buy any 680i. I have at least to January.

[icon57]

dfi or Asus Striker
not that happy with evga 680i....

[Haltech]

What kind of problems are you having with your Evga?

[Pjoeloe]

exactly.

i won't even consider asus after their craptastic bioses they are releasing for the P5B-D.
please explain yourself :)

[thunderstruck!]

qft. Asus boards are horrible. The only part of DFI I like is the LanParty series, they simply own.

Gigabyte GA-N680SLI-DQ6

It could be this one!:rolleyes:

[Luis_GT]

I'm waiting to sell my P5B-D to buy an Evga board... I'm not to keen to waiting :P

[Sumanji]

DFI!

I hear it won't be out until next year though :(:(

P.S. Can we make this a poll please?

[qdemn7]

Well... I guess the ABIT board. Too bad it won't be available unitl 01/2007.:(

[zert]

lol look at that Gigabyte board! it has rediculously few cooling. especially compared to other 680i boards. by the looks of it, they just placed DS3 heatsinks on that board.

OT: ill wait till RD600 hits the shelves and see who performs best. by then those xtreme prices will have come down, im not gonna pay €280 for a mobo :rolleyes:
dont care about waiting. i've been waiting on RD600 ever since conroe launched and 2 extra months wont make a difference.
if rd600 fails to please me ill get a abit or asus P5N32-e

[Sumanji]

Anyone else notice the top right (as in the picture) of that Gigabyte board has a chunk missing from the corner?

Strange...

"The final version is expected to come with Gigabyte Silent-Pipe cooling design."

[china]

I'm waiting for the 650-boards...

[Revv23]

I'll stick with my P5b-D for now.

if someone releases a 680i that clocks much better then ill jump... most likely abit or dfi.

I've been eyeing ABIT's new 965 board even.

[marauder16]

DFI 680i FTW! :D

[xgman]

Striker looks pretty good. DFI needs to be reviewd first I would say. They have been hit or miss lately.

[stevecs]

Asus Striker Extreme for me, I like the placement of the SB little more room for WCing than the other boards.

[adamsleath]

my preference best of dfi or gb650 - both have no heatpipes - i have an upside down case. Might get a p5n-e for a play. But i wood like to add that gigabyte colours look like clown's puke :rofl: - but!! it's probably a great board
looking for good stable VR..did i read 12 phase somewhere?? - yeah gigabyte dq6 - heatpipes everywhere...it will be nice when they are all out and i can pick my favourite one :) abit in9 does look good...i'd cut the hp from the sb for inverted case.

[\/ENDE][A]

I`m waiting for Abit IN9 32X-MAX especially after what Philly_Boy said in his last post here..
