    If this isn;t the one they are selling now - nForce 780i SLI 775 A1 Version
    , which is impossible to get, then it will be like bigfoot, lots of talk but just folklore

    they arent too rare anymore, gigabyte for example uses them on the majority of their boards....

    as for that evga board, why for f***s sake would anyone call a mainboard 780i SLI FTW?

    Regarding solic Caps:
    I had two MBs leak on the PCB and act funny after that. (or maybe it were the cats )
    Try to RMA that one! Straight to the 24v leads

    But one works fine now, after a good cleaning (i hope it does, anyway)
