What X58 You Buying? I personally going to go for the Foxconn.
GIGA, its in the sig ;)
How bout the option - None :D probably upgrading next year for westmere
Asus P6T-Deluxe, MSI X58 Eclipse or Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5
i wait for reviews and buy one of these boards.
And this is in the news section because...?
This isnt for the news section.....
entry for the news thread?????
a new entry for each x58 board that hits the net is already way over the edge let alone a pol.
I'm not sure if I'm going to make the transition for a while. If the Foxconn Blood Rage is as good as the Black Ops then I will make the plunge. I'm also interested in seeing if what EVGA come up with if anything.
I'll get the Bloodrage or if it should happen to be a disapointment I'd think about the eclipse, or a dfi one... anyway, what does this thread have to do with the news section?
Well assuming our dollar bounces back to at least 0.75USD, Foxconn for me. However it things remain the same, I'm going to sit tight.
im undecided, thought the gigabyte and the msi looks good (sata wise ;) )
I aint buying anything, atleast not within a year.
And i always prefer Asus, never had any bad experience with them so no reason for me to try out another brand.
I have 4 of them and best stable with great performance is Asus P6T Deluxe, but is not good for OCing QPI ... higher QPI then 140MHz = freez, best mobo for OCing QPI is Gigabyte X58 UDP, MSI has many problems with compatibility of RAM and Ocing is impossible at all.
i965 Extreme + Asus best choice of Ocing with multiplier and super great performance, for i940 and i920 is best choice Gigabyte ... i am here stable at QPI 170MHz + Turbo mode = i920 @ 3,6GHz Prime stable.
You are referring to the base clock, and not the QPI. QPI = QPI multiplier x base clock.
yes, of course ... but base clock is base clock of QPI ...Quote:

None for me as I won't be upgrading for at least 8 months but if I would Gigabyte would be my choice cuz of UD3.
Ouch, seems vanilla Bloomfields are no good for overclockers, as rumoured...
Evga
QFT. This computer lasts me a while. I'll add to the SSD array and add drives to the RAID 6 and upgrade the GPU, but other than that it's fixed for a couple years.Quote:
