"SLI Processor" Glorification of an unneeded PCIe switchchip.
So pretty much the only new thing in the article is that there will be an EVGA X58 board.
That's cool though.
That's my favorite piece of X58/Nehalem news yet.Quote:

Of course tri sli + x58 + i7 will beat the crap out of tri sli + 790i and C2Q, nothing really new there.
Its the first I've heard of the DFI X58-T3eH8.
If kingpin starts benching intel chipsets like he doesn nvidia everyone will be more doomed then they already are! :rofl:Quote:

I will NEVER go back to a Nvidia chipset after seeing how piss poor the 6XX and 7XX chipsets are compared to an Intel chipset. I own a Striker Extreme (680i) and a P5E Deluxe (X48) and the Intel board wins hands down in features and stability.
Of course not :) More information coming soon.Quote:

This is great news!
eVGA is a great company, and they always have been.
I love their warranties.. Now if only XFX would follow suit, then I'd be really happy. XFX has always been my favorite nVidia manufacturer...
I'll be crossing my fingers for XFX....
IIRC XFX doesnt actually make any motherboards, they just rebrand the foxconn reference boards.... as did evga in many many casesQuote:

I can't stand EVGA.
Ever since they put their head in the sand regarding the 630i not taking ram > 6400mhz without failing to post or screwing up the onboard ethernet (many complaints of this problem on the evga forums from unique usernames, EVGA didn't respond once despite otherwise being active on their forums, and they still continued to sell the board though).
Stuff EVGA. The only good thing they ever did was the step-up program, which is useless to a fair chunk of the world.
