EVGA Realeased a New Board?

**Utnorris** · 02-19-2009 12:27 PM

So I was just checking out Newegg's site and saw this:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813188046

Same model number but with a "TR" at the end instead of "A1". Now I know this is not the Classified, but I did not hear anything about this being launched, nor do I know the difference between the two. It looks the same and has all the same features, however it is not listed on EVGA's website. Anyone seen or know anything about this one? By the way, it's $30 cheaper.

Apparently it is the same board but missing a few accessories. Still a $30 savings.

**[XC] gomeler** · 02-19-2009 12:31 PM

Looking at the board images I cannot find a difference in the PCB. I wonder what changed?

edit: ah, didn't look at the accessory picture.

**Utnorris** · 02-19-2009 12:32 PM

Just the accessories, but still it's a $30 savings for a great board.

**Warboy** · 02-19-2009 12:36 PM

yea, as long as it's only missing accesscies.

**pauld5999** · 02-19-2009 01:04 PM

is it the nex x58 stepping/revision? or still too soon for that?

**Glow9** · 02-19-2009 01:07 PM

I still hate that cooler, anyone else or is it just me?

**pauld5999** · 02-19-2009 01:10 PM

maybe dropping the price is a way to increase the amount you gotta spend to step up to a classified?

Getting the A1 is basically a given for anyone that wants to SLI since it has the bridges for them.

looking at the pics and specs, it looks like it comes with the bridges, probably doesn't come with 3dmark or vary many cables.... not a big deal.

A1 version = lifetime warranty once registered
TR version = 3 year limited warranty. same as with 680i

**Michowski** · 02-19-2009 04:28 PM

**Roger_D25** · 02-19-2009 05:52 PM

When I first read the thread title I was very excited thinking that it must be the "Classified" version that was released! O-well, it shouldn't be too long now before we see it available in retail channels!

**Utnorris** · 02-21-2009 02:20 PM

You can only hope. Also, I do not believe the Classified will be refferred to as the "FTW" edition this go around.

Less warranty, less stuff in the box.
