I'm sorry to hear about your problems Aurora, that really stinks! I've been very fortunete with my board, I bought it at newegg back in late November and I've had zero problems! I started out with P20, P23, and just recenlty switched to the P25 BIOS and I continue to have no problems (knock on wood)! So your waiting for your third board?

I have a feeling you guys all already know this but eVGA is offering free cross-shipped replacments for people suffering from the low FSB speed when using Intel's Quad Core kentsfield processors! As you also probably know many Quad Core Kentsfield users are not able to get past about 1400Mhz on the FSB (350Mhz x 4) no matter what they do. Well I guess this new board is capable of upwards of 450Mhz (I've only read about this so I don't know first hand)?

My replacment has already been shipped out and is scheduled to be deliverd on Wednesday, can't wait! I have used eVGA hardware for a very long time and although their hardware is decent it's their customer service that really shines! If anyone wants more info on this you can check out eVGA website or you can also PM me and I'll give you a link to the correct part of the site.

Vranichou,
I must admit that your doing a pretty decent job so far although there is always room for improvment! Since your off to a great start do you have any specific questions? It might be easier to help you out if you asked some specific questions, then we can take it from there!

Solarfall,
That really stinks man, was your board sealed up when you got it? The place you got it from must have opened the board up and taken the missing stuff? Although I think there are a couple different eVGA 680i models available at different prices (although their all the same board). It's just that the cheaper boards come with less cables, shorter warreny, and cost less. Maybe that is what you got instead of the regular board?
