Nice looking board. I really dont need another x58 board, Im hooked on SB for now but.... I will probably order one.

I would like to see more boards like this, with enough support hopefully this will be the first of many boards to come out in the future designed by overclockers.

I wish they'd release the damn board in the US already so I that I'd have something to post about. This is the last part I need.

[sin0822]

[Biker]

[sin0822]

That is about as good as I have dammit!

I have a *lot* of hardware going mouldy here waiting for these boards to complete builds

Thanks. I have (2) GTX 580 3GB en route and I want to give them a home along with a bunch of other crap. Was going to pick up a 990X... any idea when the 995X will be out?

[sin0822]

[sin0822]

Thanks for the update. Here as Taiwan or Northern VA? Seems that I'll be staring at boxes full of parts for a bit longer.

[sin0822]

Taiwan, i didn't know GB had a factory in VA! LOL

Thought you said "here" and not "there." Wishful thinking on my part. Hehe.

[sin0822]

haha sorry about my pronouns man, but yea the statement said in the TW markets by nighttime, i bet next week we will see them start selling.

[KanGaXx]

F4C is newer then 014 right ?

[sin0822]

yes its teh newest Beta, but F3 is pretty good too. The BIOSes are listed in order

[Deux]

Any significant changes from 014 to F3? Running 014 at the moment and wondering if it's worth flashing and retesting everything.

[Hondacity]

wtf

[Buckeye]

WoW $379 plus tax & shipping puts this over $400... ekk
To much for me

I would rather get a UD5 for almost $100 cheaper and has plenty of features that can be used for other things. Plus from Chews report it OC's just as well, if not better is some cases.
