790i ULTRA SLi

[zbogorgon]

It's rare for me to make a post like this, but your disrespectful attitude is beyond unacceptable. It seems like you're just bitter about something and crapping on k|ngp|n's and dinos' work. We know what you've accomplished, but you should know better than to come in talking down to everyone like this. It's so ridiculous that I can't even believe what I'm reading.

And for the record, dinos' 1M time is actually very much on the efficient side for a Wolfdale (cannot use an older BIOS). Just compare the efficiency to Team Japan's results and you'll see they're very much on par.

you missread me then, it is not my intent to be disrespectful, but I see a lot of praising and advertisment of this 790i Ultra SLI motherboard and I would really want to understand why and so far, despite all the comments I have been able to find, it's just another nForce-based board, expensive. Okey, it goes 600FSB, but nowdays which board doesn't ?

And those Pro Team Japans results are made on almost 2 years old board that goes 650 FSB and cost 100€. Hey if you get me one of 790i's for 150€, it's a damm good board .

and little more comparison, E8500 on 100€ DDR2 board, P5K

and here it's mine, QX9770, same frequency, 407 FSB, DDR2, sub 8s, a €170 board, with dual 16x PCI-E
