    Where can I find more info? I googled this board and came up with very little. Is the four pci express slots for multiple monitors or quad sli? ETA for retail?

    Andre you tried running a PCIe raid card on any of the PCIe slots? Together with CF?

    I'm interested to know because this mobo looks best for a CF + PCIe raid card config.

    that is why they make low profile waterblocks. use them and cut the backplate down . you could make it work drivers would be another story.

    WOW!... EDIT but its on a E63... does this mean this was using windows-overclocking, and/or not as good on E66+?

    - what is the 3rd heatsink that the p5w doesnt have
    - did you rip off some covers? the 2 boards dont match
    - funny how the NB cover isnt AS restrictive as that on the P5W... perhaps they are wising up?
