Enjoy

[Nasgul]

It's a sweet looking board.

Problem? No ICH8-R.

[vapb400]

Very nice board, well featured. However I doubt it will be the best overclocking board and that is what I am looking for.

LOL altavista certainly does some rough translations (yes I do understand that translating is ridiculously hard)

[Ad1tya]

Its quite and awesome board.

Mostly, ill be buying this, as I need a damn Crossfire Supporting board. RD600 isnt supp to release till like August/Sep.. Which is sad .

[Stelios]

I can't believe they put a 4pin power connector ....

[syne_24]

Why crossfire only on the good looking asus boards? I dont feel like doing a complete changeover and get rid of my vid card aswell.

[Skyline GT-R]

Because Crossfire is only for the 975X chipset. And those are the premium boards...

[Vric]

if it wouldn't have an heat-pipe and a parallel port, I would get it.

[FischOderAal]

that's my board man!

just ordered one and it should be shipped on 21. June! (some shops equal with their dates).

and for ~200€ excl delivery it's right at my price! *yeeehaw*

[Skyline GT-R]

Great let us know how it clocks!

[DaWaN]

ROFL the babelfish translation:

8 stages of the food

But the 4 pin power is holding me back and it wonders me if this board is as good as P5WD2-E Premium

[Jack]

Problem? No ICH8-R.

What's so great about the ICH8-R?

somewhere in the article it is mentioned that they asked Asus why the only used the 4-Pin and the answerded that it is Intel Spec and due to the fact that the Core 2 Duos do not need that much Power.

sounds stupid for me... because some people will use Preslers or Prescotts on that Mobo...

What's so great about the ICH8-R?

not much. advanced hardware monitoring features and "Intel Fast Memory Access" technology are the biggest points. the last technology is senseless. because latencys do not have such a big effect on Intel based systems...

[Skyline GT-R]

No, that fast memory access has nothing to do with the ICH8R Memory access is controlled by the Northbridge and the ICH8R is a southbridge... That Fast Memory Access you are talking about is a feature of the new P965 chipset

[Mortal]

3 tablecloths

Damn, that just seals the deal for me!

even if your PC is extinct

God, it gets better!

[jdam]

i like that fan you can put at the end (or the beginning) of that heatpipe/fins mechanism. should work well.

Intel prescotts and preslers do not require EPS12V (the 8 pin power connector) this is required only for XE cpus (955,965).

ah, sry. screwed this up thanks for your correction

didn't knew that. sry once again
------------------------------
but, the one Heatsink is senseless (for Mosfet cooling), because with it only half of the Mosfets are cooled. I think it might be a try to transport the heat faster away from the chipset, plus having bigger cooling surface.

[DaWaN]

Intel prescotts and preslers do not require EPS12V (the 8 pin power connector) this is required only for XE cpus (955,965).

So you can't run 955's and 965's on this board
I think i'm sticking to the new P5WD2-E Prem. rev then

[Gautam]

A food hard disk? This will do perfectly with my lunch date with Conroe, can't wait to pull out the tablecloths. Stable food delivery too, how can you go wrong?

On a serious note, that 259 Euro pricetag ain't pretty.

[GQJesus]
