    Two things about this board make me think voltages will be more stable than what we've been used to on the Intel side...

    1. It's got 6-phase digital pwm.

    2. It's not an Intel chipset.

    It simply can't have as many bugs as the 680i. I have never seen a new release with as many problems. maybe the delay in the 600 release spells better quality control. I sure hope so.

    I think thats what it was mostly about, squeezing more out of it than they ever originally designed it for, and making sure it was rock stable.

    Very rarely is there a significant (or even noticeable) vdroop on DFI boards, especially the Lanparty series. I expect this to be the same.
