Nice one Ken.

Send a board to me so there will actually be another person with the board trying to overclock and bench to compete with you.

Have you tried Hybrid CrossfireX with it yet??

no , not yet.

Hybrid CrossfireX has to be run on the ATX board with 2 graphics slots.

but I will do it soon.

Really? I thought the whole point of Hybrid Crossfire technology was to combine the IGP with a discrete graphics card that only powers up for demanding 3D applications.

onboard + 1 card = Hybrid Crossfire
onboard + more than 1 card = Hybrid CrossfireX

Tried in CeBIT, you know that

Anyone know when this 780G chipsert comes to lappys?

to help you guys knowing more about the performance difference between a board with / without local frame buffer, here is a simple, yet informative illustration based on identical CPU & memory config, running at defaults:

with onboard local frame buffer:

without onboard local frame buffer:

onboard local frame buffer has a 17% advantage, which is matched with the AMD's 15-20% claim.

I don't want to rain on anyone's parade here, but are you ever going to launch any of these boards? It's all very well posting photographs of pre-production boards, but if you're going to avoid becoming a vapourware company, you need to actually ship a few new boards, no?

Indeed, see my other topic, ASUS and Gigabyte already have theirs in stock

this is upon the decision of OcUK,
I am just a product man,
not relating to sales.

It has been selling in other places, e.g. HK, more than a month ago...

Shame, as these seem like nice boards.

IT IS the fastest among all 780G boards in the world.
you may do a comparison to the 2 defaults above.

I do not doubt for one minute that these boards ARE the fastest in the world, or that the X48 board will be brilliant too, but I can't buy them. In the X38 thread, most of the people who were holding out for one have now bought something else, despite the fact that we all wanted to buy a J&W board. It's very annoying. You show us the goodies, but we can't buy them.

I'm sorry that once again you are the object of my frustration, as you've always been 110% helpful and J&W's support is superb, but that doesn't help if I can't buy your products in the UK.

Have a good day.

don't misunderstand me, I don't have any bad feeling about your words dude

J&W could just have an ebay shop - 99p for the motherboard on BIN and £60 postage from Hong Kong

Now that would be a nice idea

or maybe OCUK just need to start stocking some more J&W im sure they would sell a lot of these boards if they are all like IP35 boards from J&W.
