I suppose this board is XL-ATX form factor like the 890FX one right?
Just one LAN port? Seriously Gigabyte WTF... why are all motherboard vendors just adding one LAN port on their high end motherboards?
Great looking board,best I've seen so far with the new AMD chipsets.:)
Edit: and 8+2 Driver mosfet VRM for CPU,NICE!!!
I think MSI board has the same VRM setup,new AMD boards are looking good.
is an e-atxQuote:

wooooww nice :D
Interesting why on PCB is labelled HT3.0,as Bulldozer and 900 series of chipsets should support HT3.1.
Probably because the vast majority of users have no use for a second port, and those who do should get a proper nic with two ports. If one gigabit port isn't enough perf for you (assuming you're teaming them), is 2 really that much better? I'm more baffled by the fact that they bothered to include IEEE 1394.Quote:

Oh write that's elegant. I loved the colouring on the P67-UD7, and I'm glad to see that they have carried it over to the AMD range as well. AS For having only one network port, how many people actually use more than one port? Not how many people WANT more than one, how many people are going to choose another board because of the lack of a second network port. I'm willing to bet that it's under five percent. Considering the price of adding a second controller and the clutter on the back panel, it's not worth adding another network port.
Might as well be my next board!
Does anyone else get all excited to see SLI FINALLY working properly on AMD and without the need for an nvidia chip installed?
Its the best decision Nvidia has made in years.
Nice! :toast:
looks nice :up:
4way sli? I don't see 2x nf200
the first thing i thought was - 6* 24port raid cards :eek:
a ud7 missing a lan port. face palm. they were so close.

nice board ;)
Next board with the 8 core amd beast and 16gb ram = workhorse
price estimate? i think has to break 300$ easily
NICE !!!
I love the fact that Gigabyte has finally improved what really was desired for a LONG time, that shifty 1x PCI-E on top blocked by a fancy looking heatsink - they have finally quit that silly idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
BONUS !!!!
Also a little sense of humor on this board;
The recycle logo with trashbin is just next to the "2X CopperPCB ---- 4Way CrossfireX", made me giggle a tiny bit none the less.
Its not a third party solution.Its native, amd supports it, and nvidia licensed it.Quote:

looking forward to benching 4way with 580 :D
STFU noob, your watercooling cannot handle it :D :p:Quote:

The Lan port is RED. It's next to the 6 audio ports on the righ.Quote:

uhh...the lan port is there...they just decided to use a red port rather than normal black? to the right of the 2 blue USB 3 (im guessing)Quote:
