guys, you can see that this board is optimized to overclock Intel Quad Core cpus,
promising FSB, good for those CPUs with low multiplier,
so no worries, the board won't be a bottleneck ;)
you can squeeze the power out.

When overclockers get them in stock i might be excited. I remember looking forward to the X38 board and that never seeing the light of day so actual product in stock is what interests me not hype about something no one has.

as said, this will be the final update before the first shipment,
so it is going to come. :)

What bundled stuff comes with the board?

Site doesnt have the info up yet.

1 x IDE cable;
1 x FDD cable;
1 x Driver CD;
1 x Manual;
3 x right-angled SATA cable w/clip
1 x SATA cable w/o clip (because for double-deck SATA connectors, 4 right-angled SATA cables cannot be used at the same time)
2 x 4-pin to SATA power cable (1 4pin to 2 SATA power, so for 4 drives)
1 x 1394+USB bracket

maybe it should be called "OcUK Deluxe" instead of "OcUK Value" ;)

Good point.
I agree it's too expensive, to be competitive it needs to cost less than all the other x48 motherboards.

agree with you to certain extent,
from the performance point of view, Gxxxxxxx should be the cheapest.

but here I do not, and I should not comment on the OcUK pricing strategy,
I believe they will see the comments from you guys and have corresponding responses. :)

So these boards will be capable of 500 FSB with the news quads then, I have P5E now and it wont go much over 460.
Would be into buying something that will do the 500FSB. even if it is £160

yes, it is one of the very few boards that can do 500+ FSB with 45nm quad. ;)
should be a good match with Q9300, which has only 7.5x multiplier.

that's a mass generalisation right there, i've had 3 socket 775 Asus boards in the last year and all 3 were fine out of the box including the Maximus which i'm running now.

NO motherboard ever released has been totally free of bugs or there'd never be a need for bios releases and yet they all have them.

are you becoming a J&W shill all of a sudden because all people want is a date for the board, if kentofstephen can't answer that then posting another irrelevant overlock with cherry picked hardware isn't going to please anyone.

all impressive/crazy reviews you see on web are done by cherry picked hardware just to fully squeeze the board, nothing else.

which is why they're irrelevant, no user on these forums will be able to replicate those benches with their hardware.

the tech industry loves to "sell the dream" but in reality you may as well roll some dice.

look at it at the positive way,
they are just telling you how much it can do.
so if you are going to play below that "line", it should be ok logically,
that's what I think.
