This one's gonna beat P5B Deluxe? 😱 I hope it doesnt 😱 Cz if it does, I m not gonna be able to change to it... This aint USA. It's Pak...They don't RMA or any thing like that here. 🙁

Waiting to hear from you Gary 😀.
 
awesome. someone said this earlier, but the immediate area around the socket does look pretty cluttered...there are going to be some very tall hsf's on that thing. No SLK-900A sized stuff for this bad boy 😀

that is going to be an awesome board

Starting sometime after election day with most suppliers being fully ramped up by December.
 
Gary ...Please give us another pic..a top down shot so we have something to look at..PPPPPPLLLEEAAASSe 🙂
 
Not sure how much you're allowed to reveal Gary but in a hypothetical situation where someone was stuck at, oh say 440Mhz on their fsb and needed more, would this person benefit by waiting for the 680i boards. Hypothetically of course if a person like that really existed.
 
Only reason your stuck is because you're running 975X.

P965 doesn't have the same issue.

I am pretty postive RD600/680i won't either based on preliminary results.
 
One question Gary, If I were to get one of these boards, would I have to worry about straps and all that nonsense like on the P965? A binary answer will suffice 😉

I gave up...RD600 pictures were around forever and still no reviews. I'm just telling everyone to go get a tried and tested P965 board like DS3 or P5B-E/Deluxe unless they absolutely must have crossfire/SLI.

I'll take one.
 
It's unfortunate that it doesn't officially support DDR2 1066. I'm still looking forward to the DFI lanparty version of the 680i

Where does it say it doesn't support DDR2-1066? The ASUS spec above reads SLI-ready memory 1200MHz. BTW that board is.. fugly. I mean, are NV chips still so hot that they can't do away with such mal-formed heatpipes?! Granted looks aren't the most important factor for a motherboard, NV reference board looks so much better. The ASUS specs might not be correct or incomplete - If I read correctly it says blue PEGs are full x16 speed, then how long the SLI bridge needs to be?

The fact that it's not listed under the memory spec. Yes, I understand 1200Mhz was under sli-memory, but seems a little odd none the less.
