Well see how long EVGA takes.

3.5GHz is easy

i can do 3.6GHz with a stock cooler on my E6600 LOL.....i'm sure you can get a decent stepping and be done with it

Well my current E6300 does 3.5, but on this mainboard it only does 1.86

so you cannot overclock?

just get a DFI 965 chipset mobo when they come out in a couple of weeks and you'll do 3.6GHz with your eyes closed :)

i can do the same OCs on the 680i up to about 450 bootable FSB.........i've actually got a wall with all CPUs at 449MHz...............still no word on that form my contact :(

yeah clocking the FSB is easy, but... Cant do anything without USB mouse/keyboard...

Hey Cowie, long time no see :) Hows everything been dude? I seen your scores with the SLI 8800GTS's, not bad buddy :)

@CraptacularOne

thanks very much for the news.. :)

its very generous for evga to do that.. :) hope my friend got the new version.. :)

Here are some pics of the new revision of the board....

These were originally posted by glenn37216 over at the EVGA forums, he is also one of the people who have the new revision board.

As you can see there is really no obvious difference in the boards.

If it's what I think it is then no there will be no visual difference, just a change in resistor values near the socket.

what are you kidding? they suck score wise but its a gameing terror lol.
so craps no bios then for the upgrade,cus i fully customised the heat pipes ie:chopped them it up a bit,and replaced northbrigde with a t.t chipset cooler.
but i will just buy a new one if i get a quad core and make a new rig.

take it easy i will see you around bro.please keep any info on such stuffs coming if possable

I got an email about this board today. Submitted an RMA. Hopefully this will fix all my problems.
