Very nice :) But heapipe + Watercooling is total overkill IMHO.

what is tyhat last pic of?
cpu level up?

I wonder what CPU is used?

"two 8x?? PCI express lanes? That sucks, interesting layout.

I believe the CPU is E6300 (from the first source link), and look at the last option "Crazy" what is it supposed to mean?! Sorry, but its written in Korean...I can only guess what they're talking about.

i think it oc's your cpu to the next model up - setting wise.

Oof I Would Love This Mobo :)

Nice option to put a button on the back to clear the cmos.:toast:

LOL that is not Korean its Japanese.

"crazy"

lol!

Its English to me :). These are some very awesome motherboards. More and More it makes me want to go to the darkside everyday. I cant wait to see some benches on these and I like the heatpipe with watercooling on it. All copper too. Extremely nice.

i like it besides the 8x pci-e slots and i dont use sli

Yeah and also you can transform ur E6300 to a E6700 :wtf:

love the post lcd, love the copper piping and love the "crazy" option in bios, but why only 8x lanes for the gfx???

I bet this is going to be one of those $600 motherboards :(

What size barbs are on that block? I didn't see it mentioned anywhere.

Now this one is not so good ,well my opinion anways. Why is the CLR CMOS switch put on the rearside ? :confused:

Squeezing around two GFX cards and your SATA connectors to get to a jumper to clear the CMOS is usually a lot of hard work ;)

Also another problem, what if u are trying to blindly plug in ur usb key and u press that button by accident when ur PC is on?

I have not noticed ,seems rather easy to me :p

erocker"two 8x?? PCI express lanes? That sucks, interesting layout.

eh, 2x 8x pciE, why the hell not 16x?

mandeloreeh, 2x 8x pciE, why the hell not 16x?

Because the Intel P35 chipset is not capable of providing 2x PCIe 16x. ;)

malwareBecause the Intel P35 chipset is not capable of providing 2x PCIe 16x. ;)

fair do's :)

-->>> Intel therefore believes that PCIe 16x is unnecessary bandwidth. I can understand it if the PCIe is v2.0, but if v1.0, then basically, Intel is going back to AGP8x speeds. LOL. Full circle.

All complaints aside about the PCI-e lanes, I like it ALOT, and I am not one to look for the most high end stuff. May have to save my money up and get one.

While not fully true, they may not be able to make a chipset that supports full PCIe x16 lanes (two each).

With first and second gen pcie cards, 16x wasnt necessary as they couldnt take advantage of the extra bandwidth. Nowadays however, the newer cards thrive with that extra bandwidth. I guess Intel feels a small performance hit wont hurt anyone.


And for the life of me, I would like to know why the bearlake chipset isnt capable of full 16X PCIe lanes. Any Intel knowers out there able to shed light on this?
