Got my board Thursday and am in the process of bleeding my loops now. I used my MCW30 temporally until Swiftech comes out with their NB cooler for this board's heatpipe system next week. Eddy @ EK Waterblocks told me the he will have a block in production soon also. My NB heatsink was only making partial contact to the copper core. The NB had "two" washers on the back of the board where as all other screws had one washer each. I replaced their TIM with MX-2 on the NB and SB. Righ now my NB temp is 32c @3.2Ghz 1.29v. Ambient is 22.4c. This is one damn fine looking board, now if it only overclocks as well as it looks.

One thing that I do not understand is why they supplied backplates for the Mosfet blocks on the Deluxe but not this board?
