they have the p67 assassin boards coming out..ive seen pics of them somewhere surfing around....im waiting to see the black and orange o/clockers board from giga that pic were just released a few days ago...a beautiful looking board, makes the assassin theme look like a cartoon...imo...
 
I dropped the (6) 2GB memory sticks in the assassin... dropped in the 990x CPU, mounted the Zalman cooler, and have everything else sitting here. Just waiting on the overnight TJ11 Silverstone case from New Egg... expensive mfing case! Amazon has the TJ11 for almost 200.00 less with free prime shipping, but won;t be avail to Amazon for abut 3 weeks... oh well.

That bullet you see in the magazine is just a half of a bullet and it is a piece of plastic... I only care about the fact that it has the new 1Gb/sec Marvell Sata 3 chip and perfect raid 0, and the integrated high quality sound, and other nice feathers... but damn is it hard to find XL-ATX cases... That TJ-11 gonna cost me california tax at new egg and 90 next day... paying way too much. However, I was TORTURED by the Asus Striker extreme board (pile of garbage). I hope this board lives up to it cost.
 
I got the TJ11 case and it is a work of art... problem is I have the nexus 1100 Watt Gold power supply and the Gigabyte Assassin wants (2) 12V (8-pin) connectors aand the power supply only has one 8 pin and a 4 pin... ?? WTF??

It takes allot of juice to be able to run, say, quad GTX 580s in SLI + a 4.4GHz Gulftown processor and 12Gigs of fast ram.
 
The problem is that I need to fill the second 8 pin 12 V molex connector. I hope this will work since I can pick it up after work today at Fry's:

The 1100 W (15db, nice!) Nexus Power Supply only has one 8 pin connector for the ATX motherboard, I need 2... You'd think in this day and age with a top of the line flagship model, they would offer 2, even if it was in the modular section, or at the very least, PROVIDE A FREAKING adaptor!! Sheeze...

I have to say the TJ11 case from Silverstone is amazing... by far the best case I have ever seen and used and worth every penny in my opinion. I am thankful someone builds quality like this for those that can afford it!

I agree with you on that last bit, since it's hard to find 2x8pin 12v molex on consumer PSUs. I think it would be better if you had a 2x4 to 2x8 adapter though, just too make sure the current draw isn't too high for the 1x4 adapter.

Sounds like the 2 x 8 12v connectors would have been something to verify on the power supply when teaming it up with this MB ... I see several 1000w + PSU's at Newegg with 2 x 8 12v..
