EVGA NForce 680i SLI Motherboard

[slykid]

well i need a mobo, what to do, go for that one today, or wait for teh asus version?

what do you think?

Shall i dare to try something new coming from evga (foxconn)?

i'm with you on that but do we know when that asus when is gonna be out?

[quicksilverXP]

Man... hey Fugger... still talk to Mark? Moved back up to the bay area... in planning stages for law school.

[Spacemaster]

I will wait for DFI,if asus dont go over 2.6V for ram,and 1.8V for CPU

[Charles Wirth]

Yep yep, good to hear you are onto a good career.

[gundamit]

Nice. Looks like the Tuniq clears the northbridge, although it looks like a tight fit. Hmmm ... wonder if Fry's will combo this board with a 6700 on Friday?

[mykeos]

damn,the area arround the socket is still not clear enough for
phase mounting.hope rd600 is arround the corner....

Waiting for more results on FSB and comparison between 975x clock per clock, i hope better runs because 13s should be @3,9ghz not 4ghz, if 680i performs as well as 975x clock per clock, i'll say goodbye to my p5w dh.

Regards!

[mykeos]

hehe,I already said goodbye to p5w dh,cause that was the crapiest board i've ever had.p5b is much better and oc friendly,and hey,even cheaper.The real question here is whether nvidia is gonna beat ati and it's rd600.

[Vett95wLT4]

is the board available online? and where?

Here.

Tiger Direct has it too but for $279. I'm sure all the west coast venders will have it listed when their busniess day starts.

[menlatin]

AAHH!!! I want it!... But i have to wait til the 15th... overtime, overtime, overtime.

[Sanko]

AAHH!!! I want it!... But i have to wait til the 15th... overtime, overtime, overtime.

aHH.... overtime is good! i'm jobless and my pocket is just empty. but guess i'll just squeeze myself getting a Biostar TF680i SLi cause it definately will be cheaper than this evga.

Subcribed.

Thanks for the review! Can you try if Kentsfield works with this board?

[Yoxxy]

Looks like Fugger has Kentsfield in it already. So should be pretty sure that it works ok.

[oOMichaelOo]

can u tell me if it's a trusted mobo? (Trusted Computing)

nice review.

[cowie]

looks very good i'm getting one today,but wanna see a few brands first.I deff. will need some help on the o/c.

[Turtle 1]

Very good results so far. I have a Question on the middle 8x slot . Can use any type of pci-e card or is it for video cards only ? Anyone

[erwinz]

nice.. will wait for more of your reviews.. go go go..

[Punisher!]

Subscribed and waiting for more OC screens!

If you need over 500fsb, then p5w dh isnt your board, if you want the best performance, you dont have another choice. I don need more fsb than my p5w can provide me, yet.

Waiting for more results

Regards!

[mykeos]

I have a x6800,and a high clocking ram (540mhz when oced),yet the divider on that board gives me headache and furthermore,the p5b deluxe is much more stable with my proc
at low fsb (400) than p5w was (at 1.85v moded vmch)

[bigjohns97]

I would like to know the diffrences between 2t and 1t as far as performance goes. It seems to me like the 1t provides a signifigant amount of bandwidth looking at those everest numbers.

[Nosfer@tu]

I hope he has some Sub Zero cooling on the basdart of a motherboard :p
