    Basically a done deal since EVGA has publicly stated there would be no support for Yorkfields on the 680i platform.

    It does seem odd. The following are more posts from EVGA in that thread. About the only thing hardware related that's left is the power plane. Kinda unclear now if Intel is screwing with nVidia, nVidia just plain messed up or nVidia is screwing with their customers.

    Unfortunately, this is the official word. There will not be official support for the QX9650 CPU on the 680i platform, anything you heard prior to this announcement is not correct. There will still be an update in December for Wolfdale CPU's however.
    We can tell you it is a hardware limitation on the 680i board. With the release of a new CPU sometimes it is not just a simple die shrink, even if the CPU draws less power there could be other specs and requirements.
    I can tell you it is not a chipset, socket, or FSB issue.
