Waaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnntttttttt !!!!!!!!!!!! :d :d :d

That mobo looks nice.. although I wish that Gigabyte would change their color scheme!!!

I just bought i7 on lga1366 2 days ago, will this be a bad dream for me!?!?!? xD(is it better than lga1366 with the same price of main system?)

And Gigabyte Motherboard looks great, I wish to see your benchmark result soon!

I couldn't agree more, but that's the best looking board from Gigabyte I've ever seen, I would buy that on a second. By the way, all that LGA 1156 gerneration boards seem very sexy :D

How it overclocks??!

I think all the 1156 boards look a little too blue. Holding their breath too long. Let them breath! :lol2:

So, shouldn't that be 8mb L3 right?

That board does indeed look nice.

Whered you buy it?

24 phase power , WOW!!!

I just hope the new lga 1156 is not faster than the i7 lga 1366, if they were I would have to go out and buy another motherboard and another chip.

Be very interested to see how far this goes!!

Agree on Gigabyte boards, their colour scheme is terrible and is one of the main reasons I try to avoid the boards!

It's not. The difference is not THAT big, but it's not faster clock-per-clock.

Ain't the cpu voltage a bit high for a 3.5GHz?:confused:

*EDIT
Hmmm... The BCLK.

I got really confused about everything i though only i7 was on 1366,

and i thought that the 8 series was i5 cos it was on the i5 socket, now i understand everything =)
