so excited about those preview :shocked: :shocked:
I presume you guys are all joking. If i ever lay my hands on this lovely mobo, the first thing i did do is to get rid of all those horrible looking pipes and waterblocks. Damn they look like a nightmare. Moreover how does these unknown blocks preform:confused: Dudes pls. voice out your hearts and thots:mad:Quote:

Very interesting Peter, got me wondering :D
indeed looks bad, like a prototype or sort, I seriously doubt the final version will be like this but it's a cool idea ;)Quote:

I want it so bad to hook up some nice R680's to it.... Any new info on these? When are they being showed at CES? What chipset X38 or X48? ANYTHING?!?! lol I love these quantum force boards nothing like them :)Quote:

I'll take one of those when ever it retails. Quadfire :cool:Quote:

Be even worse than that if something is in the PCI-e x1 slots.Quote:

Not true, 3dmark06 can barely see the diff from asus commando to asus maximus formula for x-fire.Quote:

Still waiting tomorrow to see this monster IRL !
Do you want more better sized pics ? (Don't blame me Sham :D)
I've made a little analys of pics and Information I've about this board on Syndrome-OC's Web :

(I don't want to create "another" thread cause pics are from Shamino no me :))
[jooke]CES is announced in France :eek: -> proof
:ROTF: [/joke]
Enjoy ;)
w.r.t the first mobo, i'm in love with teh CPU socket area, and the massive clearance and cleanliness in general.
The BIOS shots above look fantastic - finally someone making sense of the miriad of setting available with pointers on what affect different components!
ORLY? put 4..no 2 R680s and run 3dmark06 at 8x and then at 16x. the amout of bandwidth would choke the cards, if 8x didnt make a difference then ATI would have used a 16x bridge on the R680 instead of a 32 lane bridge. if some one is buying a mobo that big, they arent going cheap on the gfx cards.Quote:

and I am talking r600, the more bandwidth hungy ones.
Afaik, the dual gpu ones, don't support quad cards and octofire. But being as they don't exist retail yet, guessing at what they'll need is pointless.
