I'm with Tony, people forget is primarily a DFI tech support forum, letting people run loose without having rules causes a lot of needless posts while people help to try and solve the issue. They are not the marketing section of DFI, that's handled how DFI sees fit, working in tech is a seperate concern, the last thing you need is false hope being given to users before a board is released then have floods of emails requesting rma's due to some kind of miracle overclock not taking place. Further most people that are noobs to dfi boards, and overclocking with them can get great help at that site, at xs the majority are seasoned people who know their way around a bios or two. Testing done here by users on behalf of companies who supply them boards is different, as the needs of the users are not as typical as joe average, so simple screenshots of pi a few 3dmarks and a few bios voltage shots often suffice. The street is primarily for people who are stuck on hardware choices or can't get certain ram to work or need to check the database for overclock help. The more frequent users at the street have helped make it a lot more than just a database, follow the rules and you'll see. We need to realise that we can't treat every forum the same, each has it's use.
Back on topic, I'm hope we'll be seing this board retail by the end of the month, I think DFi has done it's work right and got the right people testing the board before release to help iron out any hard glitches.
