I had to go else where after waiting a week for it to come back in, still no stock and I got my board earlier this week. Was slightly cheaper as well. Very nice looking thing :)
 
Every time I look it's out of stock. Board looks amazing, I want to buy it even though I might be waiting ages for DC. I want to make are it fits my Phenom M with a dark Pro 3, I've measured it, its going to be a tight fit with the hard drive's but should work...

SOC-Force LN2 edition, New DDR3 Frequency world record.

Bit of a random one that ln2 edition, 2 dimms slots (you can disable 2 on the non-ln2) and no cooler mounts (can be ignored anyhow?). Besides the no doubt different bios that will likely work on the regular soc force it all seems a little pointless?

4.5ghz ddr3 is nothing short of insane though :eek:

LN2 pots are stupidly heavy, also as they freeze they "stick" to the board/CPU.

Two RAM slots so they are as close to the socket as possible for even better signalling etc.
 
Ah I see, I take it giga didn't follow on with the 8+ layer PCB others have to combat this kind of thing?
 
I read at another site that with surface mounted dimms, not only do you get better signalling etc, as you don't have those little solder points they don't pick up interference like hundreds of little "antenna"
