Still even without the GbE using a lane (I didn't mark the HDA), that black slot is undoubtedly x8. It has all the necessary caps and traces and is even labeled as x8. So X79 would still need to provide 15 lanes for this setup if SB-E only provides 32.

Not trying to be a pain in the ass, just want to know how you're getting your info.

You're right, there are 40 Gen 3.0 lanes from the CPU, 8 Gen 2.0 lanes from the chipset.

Seemed really nice until started to look more at it.

1. Fan on the SB is a no go they don't last my required usage time.
2. BF3 i like the mobo but do i have to pay for shit that i would not want ot some one would not need.
3. Realtek, really on a such expensive mobo ( not as it would matter to me i use my video card but i don't want a possible crappy sounding mic output).
4. WTF were they thinking when they put the power button at the top right of the mobo but i guess it's excusable as there is less chance of a video card covering it up.

could also be for guys who run the raven2 which mounts the boards upside down.......cool board but the bundle with BF3 really.......Who has not bought the game already lol.

Well why wait for Ivy? This will get Ivy-E, so just replace the proc when Ivy comes.

But i have a 4ghz it 930, that thing still is more than enough for games
