EVGA preview high-end, overclockable Dual-LGA1366 Motherboard

What? Not xeons, but standard, dirt cheap 920s? That would be quite something.

Add in that the board needs at least five 6-pin power headers

Doesn't specify which, and failing to work it out from the board. 6 pin is weird too, will this be the same as peg cables or something else? I see two 8 pin atx sockets and three 6 pin which look a bit like graphics card wires. Very few psus have two 8 pin cables and enough peg cables to cover 3 + graphics cards though

Too little information available on this board :(

That EVbot handheld controller sounds good, adjusting voltage and clocks on the fly will be good for when you need the extra oomph (playing crysis for example) and then once youve finished playing re-vert back to factory settings :)

Other manufactuers should take note.
 
It not only features dual LGA 1366 sockets for Intel 45nm Xeon 5500-series processors and upcoming 32nm Westmere-based variants, but it also supports up to 48GB of DDR3 1600MHz+ working in triple-channel mode across all twelve slots.

Going to have to agree with fudzilla on this one, doubt it will support standard bloomfield processors. But am suprissed about the fact that you can use all 12 slots in tripple channel @ 1600mhz+.

With my current dual board you can use 6 channels @ 1333mhz max speed, if you fill all 12 it drops in speed and unsure if you have triple channel support.

Edit: Totally worried about this board and my u2-ufo.... could be one hell of an expensive upgrade :)

Do Want

:eek:

Are they the only 2 sata ports on the board cause they look to be pretty pointless with a 5970 covering them in tri fire lol unless i'm missing something somewhere
