my board arrived today so i thought i'd take a bunch of photo's.
most of you will have seen these elsewhere but a few of them might be worth something.
so far its just the pics...will add stuff after the build and some testing.
btw installing the heatsink was a breeze...substantially easier than say a stock cpu heatsink.
after checking or applying the paste the heatsink should be aligned centrally between the mounting hooks as accurately as possible.
then pressure and manipulation of diagonally opposed hooks will get it done in no time.
the instructions in the package a complete enough.

































so far i have measured vdimm and it appears to match the exact setting used in the bios when idle...
vcore in bios i have set to 1.35 for the moment and measured idle is 1.358vcore.
