    Thereis only one MB out there that I'm aware of that allows overclocking on a dual 5520 chipset and thats the ECGA SR2 board..
    Also if you look at the posted specs on the board it looks like a copy/paste from EVGA's site..
    Interesting..
    I wonder how big the smile is on Peter Tan's face seeing this?

    Hence me wondering why they haven't mentioned its name... They should, really.

    they're selling to "high frequency hedge funds", do you really think that they want to tell people which products they're rebranding so that everybody and their sisters can calculate the mark-up? They're going for the low-hanging fruits, the dudes who won't know about SR2 and will happily pay for a 4.4ghz cpu factory oc'Ed
