Looks sweet! We should hear more at CES.

Asus did it last year in ATX, let us hope this is mATX

If only they made dual-Nehalem motherboards you could overclock... I've not seen one yet!

The EVGA twitter feed said that it would be a full-blown Classified motherboard, so I would expect that it would have very similar (if not the same) overclocking features as the single socket Classifieds (E759, E760, E761, E762). It even has a rear IO connection for the EVBot.

Rumors on XS has it that this bord will be revealed thursday at CES.
Untill then, pictures:

A member on XS pointed out this connector:

Which would go well with this EVGA product:
EVGA EVBot Tuning Utility

This size is funny though. I see it as a E-XL-ATX board (pic from evga.com):

Looking at all the power plugs, I have no idea what kind of PSU will power this board.
And I see a IDE connector, wtf?

bigkingfun · 13th Jan 2010, 01:13

I would love for BT to review this monster:

No info on EVGA's own site yet.

Look at all those PCIe 16x slots!

Splynncryth · 13th Jan 2010, 05:46

Too bad it's not a dual IOH config. That would be an amazing about of PCIe bandwidth on a board like that.

Jasio · 14th Jan 2010, 20:19

If you look up the single CPU Classified 4-way SLi -- it also requires 9 PCI slots, and the current "compatibility" list only lists 4 cases, of which only 2 I'd consider (Corsair Obsidian, and Lian-Li PC80). Eitherway, cool board, great folding platform, shame there are no inexpensive (sub-$900) 24GB DDR3 triple channel kits around.

Krikkit · 14th Jan 2010, 20:24

Looks pretty swish to me, finally a use for all those retarded 1kW+ PSU's!

I'd actually expect that board to be even larger than the XL-ATX. There's the single-socket four-way SLI Classified board that already meets the XL-ATX-"standard", and this seems even wider.

And if the guys at EVGA aren't totally nuts, those power connectors are PCI-e-connectors. That's what I'd do, anyway, it's the same +12 V anyway, so why would they require some special PSU...

KayinBlack · 15th Jan 2010, 04:32

I'll keep my OCable dually, thanks.

Mine's easier to run, if not quite so extreme.

javaman · 15th Jan 2010, 04:50

fold, game, encode and cook something at the same time with the amount of heat that think will produce.

Lizard · 15th Jan 2010, 17:33

As the resident bit-tech/CPC dual-processor nut I'm already talking to EVGA about a review sample. Should know more in a few days.

Omnituens · 15th Jan 2010, 17:38

Holy crap, don't think that will even fit in my 840 classic

Oh wow, green PCB, that's something i haven't seen in a while.

Mankz · 15th Jan 2010, 17:59

And heres me thinking the original Classified was totally retarded...

KayinBlack · 15th Jan 2010, 18:42

I can't say shite. My project is an octal core based on an MSI K9ND Speedster. We're trying to update microcode for Shanghais now.

If you compare the screwholes on the size-sketch and the picture above, it seems to be XL-ATX.

Yearh that seems right. I doubt any single existing PSU would power this bord with 4-way SLI/CF though?
