EVGA X58 SLI Classified Delayed Until Mid-March

Should be something up any day now. I did not have the best CPU's from Intel to test, the 965's I recieved were 4.6GHz capable at best. Which is not such a bad thing as I guess it's closer to what the retails for the masses do. Interestingly enough, the 920 I purchased OEM was the best of the bunch - even cold.

Thus far, it's been a dependable performer. A lot more robust than anything else out there right now. Which means if you're pushing stuff to the max, it has a better chance of lasting where some of the lesser engineered boards tend to keel over after a while (like Fet's popping under high current when pushing sub zero). It's the most cold friendly board I've benched on this platform.

Thanks for the preview, raja. It will come in time for D0 and usually waiting... pays :)

Will it be any better than other X58 boards?
Same QPI wall...

There's no QPI wall, there's just too low voltages! :lol:

depending on where you are i could send you my 965 does really well under cold, on r2e 4.8-9 vantage, 5.2+ spi, 5.3 valid, -105 CBB, vwall around 1.7v.
currently i have no ram and not enough room to set up a bench so it's just sitting, shoot me a pm ;)
