"The most powerful microATX motherboard - DFI LANParty X58 series products are now fully in place
DFI, Taipei 2008/12/30 – The DFI LANParty X58 series of motherboards are almost ready for full market launch. Apart from the highly popular, high-end version UT X58-T3eH8, the other two heavyweight products, DK X58-T3eH6 and JR X58-T3H6 will also be available soon."

More...

The DK Version of the X58 looks nice..
I really like the layout without a Heatpipe all over the Mainboard, so you can put a WC Block on the NB without changing everthing..
If it´s priced below ~250€ i´ll maybe get it instead of the Bloodrage, since it will be probably available earlier in Europe

The JR is seducing me .. gonna wait for her

sweet.. more DFI X58 goodness :D

This is a fairly gay comment but while I like the box artwork, it doesnt match the board- looks a bit inconsistent :S

Aye, but you don't look at the mantlepiece while you're poking the fire :rofl::up:

Gigabyte? :lol2: :up:

Paper bag? :p:

I wasnt all that bothered by their colour schemes, just a shame that apart from maybe Kingston RAM and a few nVidia GPUs nothing was ever gonna blend in well with them :D

New schemes are slightly better.....

Why do I keep bringing up colour co-ordination?! DAMNIT!

Once you start sketching up new designs for purses and women's shoes you'll know the bitter truth.

What happened to the orange/yellow scheme? That always looked really good.

I wonder where they are going to price the DK? Maybe below the non-deluxe P6T?

Darnit, I'm tired of waiting!

The JR is supposed to be out January 23rd, maybe I'll get to order my new computer for my Birthday present. :D

You would think boards that expensive DFI could at least use copper heatsinks :down:

anyone know where you can order the JR X58 T3H6 X58?

Doesnt have digital PWM.. so it wont be that good as UT or Bloodrage.. it will be just very good mobo.. I think in this case you can buy any other without big impact on performace.. its just DFi's mainstream mobo.. but I must admit mATX format is very interesting..

I think the matx will be my next upgrade. Im looking forward to playing with it.

DK not only looks, but it is interesting ... If the price is around P6T non-deluxe - it's a winner (depends how DFI shapes up the BIOS). Too bad, that the JR doesnt have that much free space around the huge 1366 socket, a lot of heatsinks won't fit I guess

DK X58-T3eH6 ￡189
JR X58-T3H6 ￡179

These are the suggested retail prices for the UK which puts the DK at around £40-50 less than the P6T Deluxe.

In other words, the DK should roughly cost the same as the gigabyte ex58-DS4.

I7 and 2 55nm GTX2x0's watercooled in a matx case sounds tasty... damn, I don't want to spend anymore money but the x58 matx dfi is very tempting.

watercooled - mATX ??? now how do you expect that to work well? externally maybe

Some DFI guys must have spent an awesome time in Brazil :D

I think they probably should have stuck with the orange/black theme here, but I love my green and yellow slots on my DFI boards so I can't complain :D

Externally? nah... Lian Li Pc V350, two 120 mm fans in the front, so should be possible to squeeze in a dual rad, the 5,25" bays have enough room for a Mcp 355 and then just a fillport instead of a res.

thats why this mATX interests me. Cause I want to use it in an ATX case, (lian li v1000), so I have a lot more room for a top mounted rad (on the inside).

There is still a heatpipe between the MOSFETs and northbridge.

However, the DKs lose the best DFI feature, the Volterra digital buck converter.
