How do you know ? The article does not mention it, nobody does in fact, so I highly doubt they are of different size.

:D Advantages over the BX1 clearly discribed in the article at VR zone:

"Below are some of the key features of the BX2 over the BX1:

Quad Core support (Kentsfield)

DDR2-800 Support

eSATA support

Enhanced BIOS features

Graceful exit of crashed system due to aggressive OC

Improved levels of overclocking for freq and voltage

Faster secondary SATA (1.5Gb/s vs 3.0Gb/s)

On-board power button for fast bench testing or system rests"

:toast:

sorry, I am not able to test it until next week :(

too busy :'(

Anybody know when this actually comes out? Thanks!

anyone know is shamino on vrzone still talking orders? and or shipped out the bx2?

unfortunately i dont have a username over there

What's up with this board...is it "officially" released or not? :? So confused.

It is called an Engineering Sample rollout.

It is not available to the public at the current time.

So the first board will not be able to run C2Q's but this one will? Or what's the go - what makes it merit the number '2', if it's not just a revision?
