Looks pretty savage, have you got any internal shots of the built in NB waterblock. It would interesting to see what Asus have have done with it.
Can't wait to see this board in action, have fun!
Hi CornerJack!
Can you tell us the size of the waterblock fittings?
Thanks
:shocked: :shocked: :shocked: i would love to know when this board would be released or the Blitz Formula :up: :) :D
8/10 :DQuote:

now post some real shots of your board you have.
And it comes with adapters for 1/2"?? If not, what a stupid decision.Quote:

What's the difference between this one and the non water cooling one besides the obvious?

since a cm is less than an inch... cripes,, what does that convert to.
3/8 inch ?
looking good jack , see ur msn dude ;)
13mm = half inch. 8mm is between quarter and 3/8 :\ 10mm is 3/8
Yes, the origin size of the waterblock fittings is 10 mm (=3/8)
Picture with adaptaters 8/12 (=1/2) and 8/14 :D

:( Thats so super ugly.
Thanks for answer and pics ;)
But it suxx :(
Vivement le test ;)
By the time most people hang everything on this board they are going to hang and stuff it into there lousy air flow case and perform their usual bad wire management,you won't even really see the board anymore so it's looks won't be noticed. Just the mess around it. Another words the board looks fine to me. I prefer to see it in action and let that determine whether it sucks or not.
WZ
Yup, is 3/8". 8/10 fittings have 8 milimeters of inner diameter and 10 of outer diameter.Quote:

Have fun :)
The one question I ask everyone that has one, is Crosslinx working or not?
You're not obligated to watercool it, it's an optional WC, it can run passively ;)Quote:

Bios seem well provided :)
Nice Pics, thanks :up:
So is the Channel A and Channel B voltage reference options to account for how on the P5K deluxe the black ones are more stable than the yellow ones? In that they run tighter timings on the ram and can clock higher?
Yes, but not much faster than 16x4 with the 2900's at this time, drivers are still immature for CrossFire/P35.Quote:

No, CGI just optimises the DMI bus for handling lots of highspeed peer-peer writes between the PCI-E 16x and 4x slots. The Blitz literally splits the 16x slot into two 8x slots which has two advantages - more bandwidth for the second card, peer-peer writes can (presumably) happen directly in the crosslinx IC.Quote:

looks promising... especially the voltage options in bios.. 3.0v for memory hahha thats mad.
ahhhh run for the hills.... that heatpipe is scary. What's the NB temp with and without water?

Nice board looks really promising!
jack is getting 2 2900XT's to test if it works ;) , by the word's it should work or we give asus the blame :)Quote:
