I have not been this excited about a motherboard in some time. I would give my left leg for one of these. I need to build up some industry contacts again so I don't miss out on the chance to review hardware like this.

You realize that without your left leg you will be seriously limited in testing this baby to your liking without outsourcing? :D :D
Hmmmm. Well if I were able to obtain a review board I would spend at least its value on watercooling parts, and some mobility is required in setting that up (or at least it helps set it up faster). But my wife has helped me set up water cooling before, I'm sure if I were a leg down she would be more than happy to help.
Or at least she would be more than happy to help when I explain that overclocking the hell out of my 5520's will generate a lot more finished WU's for WCG, especially since her toddler cousin was recently re-admitted to the hospital and we are waiting to hear if it's a relapse of brain cancer.
Looks cool. Besides, one socket mobos are SOOO 2009.
Is it listed already:

???
No. That board you linked is this board: http://www.evga.com/products/moreinf...170-BL-E762-A1
Nope thats the 4 way classified for running four GTX 285's in quad SLI.
Haha that sucks, I was confused by the "Classified" moniker and lack of specs :O
Imagine having two Core i7 980X and all those RAM slots populated along with either 3 5870's or 380 GTX's when they come out... OMG what a dream
I was thinking 2 systems instead of one OCed one would be better.. but then, 2 mobos, no cheap choices available, double the RAM, double the CPUs.. far outweight the watercooling and single overpriced mobo.
Hmm... too bad I will be going ECC route, so no RAM OC for me :(
didnt movieman have something to do with this board? ;)
I swear just one nf200 chip on that mobo &.. FAIL
this is obviously gonna need xeons
Oh man, NF200, and 2 of them?! Why don't they bundle a shovel of coal and a box of matches instead, at least you can use it voluntarily.
cool, but 24-48GB RAM and no ECC... isn't that a bit risky?
That is if you plan on actually using it as a ramdisk or something... not just websurfing :P:
Yeah I can imagine that and then the board refusing to run at all, tearing all my hair out, hitting the EVGA support forums with the might of Thor and then feeling like a clown having spent 2 grand on a couple of extreme edition CPUs that had their second QPI disabled in firmware, have no way to communicate between them and thus had no place in a dual socket board to begin with. The scratch I got back from selling them would then have to go towards Rogaine treatments (tore my hair out, remember?) and I'd be left with a 600+$ board, three or four 400$-500$ VGAs and 48GB of ECC RAM that costs almost as much as a small car. Ahh, letting your imagination run wild.;)
The amount of people jumping aboard across the various forums is staggering. Seems EVGA can do no wrong lately.
