im thinking about swapping out my dfi board for this giga o/clock board...
it seems to be an awsome board...
the link is to the review of the board...ill sell my dfi and the difference would be about $150 bucks if the board comes out at 260-280$ like they say...
im not going 2011 as as I plan on keeping this rig for probubly 18 more months..then ill look at the landscape and see what the new stuff is all about for what i can afford to build...
if i need more usb ports id just add a usb card...thats the only other thing i believe id need.
it would be a single video card setup...to me the sli ,xfire is a waste of money for what i do with my computer...i want the fastest cpu/ram aircooled setup i can get with good temps..
its not a 24/7 rig...i like tweeking alot....anyway this board looks so fine and the hardware is top of the line..looks alot like msi's drmos voltage design...

the link is to a very good review....if you havent seen this board ,plz take a look...
 
read same review on ocn, looks like a sweet board he didn't get to try out LN2 though because he killed the board when installing he left a screw behind the motherboard. Not sure if he got his replacement yet. I wouldn't upgrade though money would be better spent on GPU(s)
