    yeah mate got 3x 280gtx, did some real prelim testing tonight,

    this cpu speed is just relaxed, P1/P2 enabled, gpus @ stock clocks/coolers

    keep in mind of course overclock on gpu will have big impact on cpu score with physx

    thanks mate,

    im using the non-approved drivers, at the moment i dont care about orb hof, until they get themselves sorted out and decide which drivers we can use, im going to use whichever driver gives me the most points =]

    awesome looking forward to that vdroop working... ill use peters suggestion and try running 1:2 in sync tonight and tightening up my ram timings a bit... think i can keep pushing my pci-e aswell im at 115 so far, will shoot for 125~ tonight.. back to air on cpu now and try to work on my vantage optimization for the next few days

    Has anyone had the 790i freezing issues on this board? If it is completely freeze-free I may switch to it from S2E.

    from the tests here @XS, sounds like the issues experienced with SIIE didn't affect the Dreadnought...but OK, the card is not available yet (at least not in Europe) and we don't have comments from many users.

    Do they still plan on going public/retail with this board? The Retail version review was started back in May, and here we are coming up on August...

    Yeah, i would really like to know about the availability of this board as a potential replacement for my striker. Also, has any one heard anything of the DFI 790i that they showed at cebit (i think) earlier in the year?

    Guess this sheds a little light on the subject of non-availability:

    Nvidia left chipset business

    Sorry guys...rumors talk the NVIDIA is going to left the chipset business. Gigabyte, Foxconn and other brands remove the production of nvidia chipsets due serious problems with Intel Processors...

    Please moderators, close this thread. Thank you!

    Foxconn Dreadnought is canceled. Now I have one really rare motherboard in my closet.
    You are as good as your samples are!
