    Also notice that it is already classic DFI, with Typos all over the place.... notice the "8 channles" in the audio. Heck, there's even typos in the BIOS on my 790FX machine

    7.1 channels....7+1=8
    5.1 channels....5+1=6

    More is better

    As long as it has enough VLOTAGE (not a typo)
    it's all good.
    Some people have mentioned that the igp is waisted
    when you add the discrete cards,but I think there is an
    "older" feature called "surround view" which allows you
    to run an extra (2?) monitors. That would explain this slide
    that Oliverda posted (asked about) earlier.

    This "new" feature seems pretty cool :it enables you to
    upload your BIOS settings ( and sell it on the e-Bay) to share with others

    Yep, is says Vlotage in the BIOS, with plenty of other charming typos. Gotta love it

    Thats DFI getting to me with their spelling, got 3 in one room
    The more typos the better the board
    They're almost always "late", we'll have to suffer.
    This "Phenom FX" keeps coming up, and not with just DFI but other
    mobo makers as well. Is that a hint, or Phenom BE=Phenom FX ? Does anyone have any 'inside" info ?

    The Phenom FX was suppose to be a 3ghz CPU with unlocked Multi I believe,, And they are saying that if the 45nm variants do better they will again try to release a Phenom FX chip...The BE were just to give value to the 65nm line..

    Edit: Anyone can feel free to correct me.. I am married and use to being wrong...^_^

    Ok, first I was ready to settle for the M2RS board, but now that I've seen the LP JR 790GX, I think I'm set on my next board.

    I guess that you mean RS780D chipset with 'M2RS'? Cause DFI's new line has loads of M2RS now, if the M2RS version already excisted they put a 'B' in it

    I cruised through the DFI advertisement so quickly, I didn't even notice the typos and disjointed grammar. But now that you guys mention it, "They all performs very precisely..... Core Choke's 800Khz clock is the main reason to make voltage's output become shortly.... That is why the board no need to have a bigger Capacitor anymore."

    All the same, this board looks awesome. This will be my very first DFI motherboard; so I now look forward to reading the BIOS as well.

    whatever the standard M2RS board was, that's the one I was initially excited for, but now I see the LP version, and I think it's won me over. Assuming the P45 version doesn't win me over first.
