This is the new board from EVGA for the X58 chipset which is, as of this article, exclusive to the i7 chips from Intel. Is it just me or does it look like this image was subject to the hands of a novice photoshopper? Look closely at the “Classified” logo and the red “power button” at the very top of the chipset cooling assembly…
Perhaps one of you has $449.99 USD to blow and would like to show me otherwise? Maybe they’d also like to blow $1000 on the i7 and another $300 on a proper power supply… oh wait, I forgot that this thing is marketed to trust fund babies with nothing better to do than waste money on a motherboard with “slick shiny black” anodized sockets (which will be quite well hidden beneath the HSF) and some fancy Digital PWMs that will never be used to their full potential.
Here’s Bill with the weather.
