My best guess is that if I can hit 4350mhz I can make app 100,000PPD..
That's just a educated guess.

100,000PPD on what? WCG I would think roughly 15k w/OC.

So how is the parts search going Dave? You need to pump up that e-peener with some wattages. :D

According to the FAQ on the EVGA forums, it does.

Duh

if this board could possible mae any hardcore OC, imagine having a dual headed cascade like unrockstar is making and the 10 kw psu hipro5 is building..

The board is capable of doing well over 6GHz with the right chips,cooling and a talented hand running it.
I will not be getting to those speeds.
I have my goals and they are well short of those speeds..
The old line "Know your own limitations" fits very well here!:D

Any chance of sharing your goals? Shamino posted that it can get 200 to 205 MHz baseclocks on air in his FAQ, and given the multipliers...

People will need to buy MB when all these new 32nm CPUs hits the marked next week. Why isn't this MB released yet? Seams like a bad launch-planning for otherwise a great product that could sell like hot bread in coming weeks.

I got really surprised to find that EVGA E760 and E762 doesn't support these X56xx B0's either. Has EVGA's planners missed the news about 32nm-rash in next week?

EVGA is supporting the destop 6 cores in their boards BUT I hear there's a simple wire mod to support the xeon flavor 6 cores.
Gigabyte and Asus are supporting the xeon flavor in new bios.
The key to remember is that this is a pre release board.
According to the best I've found out release is scheduled for the ned of march, beginning of April.

Not milking my friend.
The reality is I showed the pics as I figured the guys would want to see them.
Never in a million years thought there would be over 14,000+ views on this thread in 10 days.. Really, amazed me.
Then time to secure parts and get them here.
Remember where most of the PC parts come from: California and I'm in New Hampshire..
Thats 7 days to me by UPS ground which is what most of them use.
Doing my best and beleive me I want this sucker up and running myself..
I am also limited by the expiration of the Intel NDA on westmere's..
No signed NDA here but not going to piss at them and publish benches before that ends..
Not too much longer now and honestly, the timing works for me as I need that time for the parts to arrive,build,test,bench,write and post..:D
