Nvidia 680 SLI Mobos

What is the current release list for the Conroe Nforce6 mobos on the 8th Nov ?

AWBbox · 28 Oct 2006 at 17:23

Currently there aren’t any to my knowledge. I should imagine we'll start to get a better idea nearer to the time

Scoobie Dave · 29 Oct 2006 at 12:11

Did not even realise these were coming out so soon. :eek:

AWBbox · 29 Oct 2006 at 13:53

yep, same release as G80, which might be why so little has been heard about 680i. It's been dwarfed by all the hype about G80.

kleox64 · 29 Oct 2006 at 18:53

and NDA. G80 reviews are being paired with 680i motherboards, i.e. nvidia has handed them out together to reviewers.

AWBbox · 29 Oct 2006 at 19:08

should be a winning combination I hope. Though 680i is supposed to be a really Sli orientated mobo, I wonder how many people will have G80s in Sli from the off?

Scoobie Dave · 29 Oct 2006 at 23:57

Just hope the chipset can reach really high fsb (450-500). Been waiting for a decent sli conroe motherboard to come out. . .

I've heard high 400-low 500's.

Was the pigeon exhausted after the trip with the information?

any link/info to backup your statement ?

Assuming there is an NDA - when does it get lifted? Want to see some juicy reviews

Voltage · 30 Oct 2006 at 10:49

Nov 8th.

That really does suck... not being able to see how it performs before the release date

That's because the competition is hitting them hard, otherwise they would have had done it. Although on the other hand, the competition would already know what's the max/min limitations are anyway...but still, you're right it does suck not being able to see how it performs before its release.

standard FSB has to be 333MHz for 1333MHz required for kentsfield, so 400-450HMz FSB should be easy cake.

Looks promising then.

Shame there aint no reviews.

Beast06 · 30 Oct 2006 at 13:58

I will be ordering this on the release date with 2x 8800GTX's in SLI

I will tell you how it goes when I get it but I really want a DFI version released on the 8th.

Beast06 · 30 Oct 2006 at 15:07

Gibbo, Can you tell us what manufacturers will be planning to release their 680 SLI mobos on the 8th November from OcUK ?

Hopefully DFI *fingers crossed*

w3bbo · 30 Oct 2006 at 15:41

DFI 680i gets my money (if/when) its released.

kleox64 · 30 Oct 2006 at 15:52

Only EVGA and BFG on release date.
