I have an HR-05/SLI on the NB (SPP) on my Striker Extreme. The latest version of Everest Ultimate (4.50/1343 BETA) shows a temp of 84°C. I have an E6750 @ 3.2GHz, not a huge O/C. Does that temperature seem high, or is that fairly normal for the 680i? I suppose I could always put a fan...

@TrECeNTeRs, Off topic but, The blades on my side panel fan (Tt VA8003SWA) hit the tops of the heatpipes on my Ultra-120 eXtreme mounted on my Striker Extreme. Don't yours?

My apologies for leaving out: Manufacturer Limited Warranty period (parts): 5 years Manufacturer Limited Warranty period (labor): 5 years but you paraphrased it in your reply. And, yes, if you "CLICK HERE" (http://www.newegg.com/Info/ReturnPolicy.aspx#4) you will see what I was saying...

I see, perhaps this; http://www.seagate.com/ww/v/index.jsp?v...33d21c2f32b010VgnVCM100000dd04090aRCRD would have been clearer.

Roguestar, I don't understand how the provided link is supposed to assist me? No comment on the Newegg warranty policy?

SuperNaruto, Please allow me to quote from Newegg: "1. Manufacturer Warranty a. Summary i. Return for refund within: non-refundable Return for replacement: non-replaceable b. Detail i. Newegg.com does not offer express...

Rougestar, True, but I am also finding out that the warranty is different with the OEM versus the retail.

Does anyone know where I can buy the Seagate ST3320620AS-RK? This the retail version, not the OEM bare drive that all the etailers try to sell us. Anandtech's RTPE has a couple of etailers listed as having 'retail' drives, but when you go to their site, it's always the OEM version. And, yes...

Justin, The cooling may be somewhat better, but, with the CrazyCool backplate it seems some modification is necessary for most after market coolers. As to the 3rd PCI slot, I can't really think what I would use it for? And anyway, who needs four ethernet ports? By the way, I just checked...

I have followed this thread from the beginning, eagerly anticipating Gary's review. It appears that Gigabyte's 680i offering is not much different from all the others (except for the backup BIOS and four Ethernet ports). I am not particularly impressed with this board, so I bought a Striker...

We all know how this works: Supply and demand. Wait a couple of months and the price will drop. I personally am waiting on nVidia G9x and Intel 45nm.

Only $329.00! I agree with Fallen; it was originally up on ZZF for $249, now it's $309 (but not in stock).
