OMG this motherboard has some big layout problem. Look at the north brigde.... is so close to the cpu socket, i think they removed cooler on the northbridge because intel boxed cooler didn't fit :banana: And if you install phch, you'll never going to be able to insulate the cpu proper without cooling your NB proper :(
No excess caps on the motherboard, especially crowding the socket.Quote:

Are there pics of the rd600?
Liked the Digital PWM and the Sata ports placement better for cable mgmt.
thats the 975X Infinity board, we havn't seen their RD600:slapass:Quote:

Wish everyone would use digital pwm's... /hint Asus :)
Look forward to some testing
it is supposed to be in mass production in august. That is all the common folk know about the release date. I think we will see them popping up in various people's hands over the next couple weeks.Quote:

Dude, get a dell. :nono: Dell's been doin it since sata was introduced. Kinda funny they've been strong in cable mngmt, but thats about it.Quote:

Hopefully not as expensive as the Bad Axe.Quote:

im still waiting for DFI to design a board that doesnt have a chipset between the PCI-E slots. graphics card(s) sitting on top of the fan is just weird IMO. cant be good for chipset temps, and you cant upgrade the chipset fan without modifying something.
So basically you are waiting for hell to freeze over while flying pigs rain free motherboards from the sky.Quote:

It may be possible, but you would have to sacrifice expansion slots, which is one of the best things about DFI's layout. Either that or maybe a mobo manufacturer could create an E-ATX ethusiast board, which could be big enough to accomidate larger distances from GPUs to chipset, but then you have trace length increases...
DFI Street is a good place to learn, but don't hang around there. You will soon get pissed at Angry Gamers. I said it before, but he has sticks up his ass 24 hours a day.
Price wise on a mobo say £250 and below...covers ya fanny then
