It's just a little bigger than a regular ATX board, so unless you have a big case with more room to the front near the drive mounting area, it might not fit your case. It has a lifetime warranty (upon register) so your investment is with good hands. It's a solid board, though I'm having trouble OCing my 950, which may not be the board's problem, but the CPU's. Too tired to put the 950 on a different board and see how it OCs there...Get it if you are not waiting for Sandy Bridge.Originally Posted by bro20000

There are plenty of posts/threads regarding this board at EVGA.com site. Other than that, there are no reviews that I'm aware of yet. Soon, there should be reviews.

Absolutely love it, it fixed my BCLK wall, lowered my temps and runs like a dream. Worth every penny.

Because ASUS has become non-existent in BIOS updates.
Non-responsive in implementing the needed features and being very cryptic in their responses.
I help run a multi-millon dollar business and if we provided the level of support ASUS does to it's customer's we would all be eating Raman Noodles and drinking tap water, not by choice.
I've been a long time Asus fan, because of the "brand" name. But it's worn out it's welcome based on their inability to follow through. Period.
EVGA has IMPECCABLE customer service. They actually care about their customers because they .. get this...it's a new concept, they want the customers to come back and buy from them again and again.
The fact that they can speak and spell in English and comprehend "Fix this" is just an added bonus.

One of the reason have changed bios updates and support is rubbish from asus!And when beta bios are out no one shares!

I forgot one thing if there are people that actually care about it, but this board has a lower frequency than what you set it to run at. For example, if you set the bclk to run at 200, it will actually run at 199.46 or something. I like the way Asus' boards do...they run at 200.46 when you set them to run at 200. I'm not sure why EVGA and a few other board makers do it that way. So, default for the bclk 133 will give you 132.46 or something VS. Asus' 133.46 or something.

I got this Board yesterday, unfortunately came a bit faulty as NB coler looks like that.
I have manage to fix it, but I notice that NB chip was crumbled at the corner.Fortunately Board is working fine and I didn't bother to send it back, I hope it will work for a while, and if not EVGA will replace it for me
Another thing I have notice , that NB fan is very noisy,I have used LNA adaptor from Noctua fan, and now it is quiet, but IMO too hot as in idle NB has 60C.
I will try OCing board a bit tomorow, as far 4.3 Ghz (205x21) it is flying
BTW what NB and PWM (VREG) temperatures are safe?

I just ordered one with i7 950
Cant wait to receive them

Hope you have better luck with yours. So far, OCing is crap at best with my Classy3 E770. I couldn't even OC my 950 past 3.7Ghz on this board, and I thought it my CPU. Boy, was I wrong! I put the 950 on my MSI Eclipse Plus and I now can OC it to 4Ghz w/o any stability issue. As far as I'm concerned, this is a very bad OCer. Now, I also installed my 920 on this board (which I can OC to 4.305Ghz (21x205) without any issue on my Eclipse Plus) and crap, I can't even OC it past 3.7Ghz on this board. Maybe I just got a bad board. I'm going to sell my board and re-order another one with the hope that I will get a better OCer.I just ordered one with i7 950
Cant wait to receive them

Have had no trouble with mine have looked at online guides to clocking the board on evga forums and have got mine clocked at 4ghz up to yet on my 930i7! Just waiting for my 980x to come now and i will do some more testing! I feel this board is alot better than the R3E in bios terms plus my cpu seem to run cooler with this board and use less vcore!

Okay, here is a more or less suicidal screenshot of my 920 on this board. Haven't done stability test yet, so there is no garantee of any kind yet. Hopefully I can finetune it further to stable.

Well, not stable with that speed. Probably a heat issue. I see Kup's 1.588v, you must be using liquid cooling?
