:eek: do want! at first, i thought it was photoshoped, but looks like it just might be the real thing. so boards accepting i9 CPU's is also backwards compatible with s1366 i7 chips right? hope this board won't break the bank! i would love to crunch on this with my two old i7 920's.

edit: nm that was an ignorant comment. this will break the bank. classified was $400 at launch, dual socket skulltrail was even more, so i'm guessing this will be around the $600 range.

It will break the bank, and it will require server CPUs, pretty sure.

What if I told you that Dave already knew. :p:

Then about $3,000 for 2 cpus that will work in it, cheaper just to build 2- i7 920 rigs... :D

Oh my ... now to figure out how pay for it.
I knew I wanted to upgrade my i7s to i9s but this is looking mighty tastey :up:

So is this like the unofficial new skulltrail?

If it OC's well and has SLI then this is the board of my dreams. Its just a shame the combined cost of a pair of i9's and the board will be well out of my price range.

I can't imagine the insane amount of computational power that two oc'd i9's would put out. Its just... wow... It will take i9's right.

EVGA you just blew my mind.

so you already confirmed that it can't take s1366 i7's? if it can only take two 6core/12thread i9, then no way i can afford that :(

Well you have to have server chips that can communicate with each other...

Umm, I don't think so. i9 doesn't use LGA1366:p:

That is wrong.
i9 Gulftown or Westmere works in the current X58 boards ,which are S1366.

Aren't Gulftowns/Westmere still considered as i7? I thought i9 was those eight-core/Beckton ones.

Oh no!! Dave's heart's gonna go out when he sees this! :p:

You are right! ;)
Gulftowns are still i7. :yepp:

Dave, please run some WPrime for the team! :D

could be i7 or i9 , I don't know. that's just marketing talk.
Most of the ES hexcore cpu's show up as 'DP Westmere' in cpuZ. Nothing more.

Only a matter of time before word got out, I guess ;)

Yes, this is what Dave, me and a few others are waiting for - FINALLY a way to overclock all these nice DP Xeons. I'm planning to pick up at least 1 to OC the :banana::banana::banana::banana: out of a DP Westmere... for a single machine that will do around 100k WCG/d :D

just found this tweet from Jakob ...

Yes, it is a Classified model :) And all the features one would expect on a Classified.

I'll second the "Oh My" I posted earlier :drool:

If you have the $$ for that MB and the CPUs for it I found just the case to put it all in. Newegg. :D

Too bad, only mATX and ATX are supported:rofl:
