Have a 680i evga board and they have the program now for me to upgrade. Is it worth it. I really cant see me upgrading my cpu for a penryn based one I have a qx6700 oc'd to 3.46ghz and I dont think I will do 3way sli maybe 2 idk yet but other then that wat will 780i offer me that would convince me to upgrade?

Why upgrade? If your system is performing well, leave it alone, unless you are rich. Nehalem will be out in about a year or so requiring still another new board design.

Not to mention that EVGA wont cross ship on this offer. That was the deal killer for me.
