The only thing wrong with the X58A-OC is that it is not yet for sale to mere mortals, but I can understand some might think that the current exclusivity is a good thing......

Waiting, just waiting. Sigh.

Apparently first boards should be getting to retail channels now. Not sure if the board CAL930 has is retail or provided by GBT too.

Boards running a tight ship, couldn't suck in trcd and I know my set is good for 960 6-6-6.

I can't even post with trcd 6 much less try to get it stable. Not a bad thing trcd 7 = 6 performance compared to other boards.

Hey dino can you put in a note for me, voltage increments. This .100 increment stuff is killing me. 1.3, 1.4,1.5,1.6 pll :/ what if my chip likes 1.55
