ASUS P6T7 WS Supercomputer

[nge769]

I'm thinking of picking this board up,(ASUS P6T7 WS Supercomputer) ill be running I7 975, 2Xgtx295's (quad sli) and sound card on the slots ..Im also worried about the heat, NB,SB.

Ive owned the p6td v2, and RIIE (RIIE has bad slot placement, Video cards butt up against each other )and the p6t7 has a lot of room for different combinations in slot space.

Need advice before i pull the trigger,Thanks

You don't mean the P6T6 WS Revolution by any chance, do you?
Because I can't find anything on the P6T7...

If you do talk about the P6T6, keep in mind it uses an NF200 chip for all those extra PCIe lanes, which adds at least 20-30W to the mobo heat dump.

Also for "only" 2 GPUs I'd use another board, since every x58 can do SLI with 2 cards at 16x/16x.

The mobo seems a great choice.p6t6 ws Revo as far as i know with 965-2x295-Xonar-6G ram had no temp problems.
But if you are so concered about temps take Revo and install a W/C full cover block.

No, its the p6t7=7slots;) and it has two,yes i said two NF200 chips on board and I'm going to make it into a gaming monster that will make the classified look like a calculator, lol:rofl: ... The thing is ill be technically running the 2Xgtx295's (4 GPU's)which i took a hit on vantage of 600 points on the p6t deluxe because
i used a pci slot for sound between the video cards.

Anyway my finger is getting itchy to buy,but i don't wanna be a Guinea pig to drop $450.00 clams on :eek: still debating!!

You won't turn the Classified into a calculator unless the Asus will overclock better, I had a R2E for a couple of weeks testing and when I switched to a Classified I was able to run the same processor 450mhz higher with stability to boot--good luck, it is an interesting looking board and if I had $450 floating around I'd be tempted to pick it up to compare but times are bad
