Thanks! Probably be a month before I get it as EPOX says April release, but CyberSprinter took the order, so who knows... [Smile]

Did some looking around and I see some of the other guys have played with some engineering samples. I think an honest assesment is with a released board, not one that is set up for tweaking on the firmware/hardware engineers desk... I've been there & done that... That's the way we get boards for firmware testing, and probably everyone else in the industry too.

The first commercial ones will be "pilot" builds so there may even be some teething issues with that, but that is how things go in the industry.

I've been waiting for this board to hit the shelves in the UK ... nothing so far, but I have great expectations. I prefer this Epox board to the ASRock 939SLI32 ...(on paper at least.)

One thing we know is the BIOS will have all the OC BIOS settings instead of just a few like ASRock has... Check the Epox-9GF6100-M BIOS Screen Shots.... That is typical Epox.... [ThumbsUp]

I took this baby right to 9X300 with an Opty and G.Skill 2X512 "LE" without a hitch. I just love the BIOS! It was a quick test setup before leaving for the Office [Smile]
