    It does appear that there will not be much room for overclocking on air.

    If you don't want heat there's always LGA 1155. Runs very cool yet still gives great performance for the majority. SB-E is aimed firmly at enthusiasts who want to water cool :)

    Didn't say it was a bad thing ... it's easier to justify the WC stuff to my dear half :hehe: : "Darling, I really need those nice piece of copper to cool the PC :blush:"

    Careful, she might suddenly "need" some new shoes or accessories that make an i7 3960X look affordable. ;)

    New shoes implies new bag, which implies new hair cut, which implies selling the waterblocks :hehe::lol:

    Could the extra heatsink on the DX79SI board be for relocated power circuitry?

    For the record you shouldn't/won't see our boards anywhere public. That's not saying we won't be available for launch like always, but we are keeping them secret until a later date :)

    As long as the extra heat brings the performance we all are hoping for/expecting from intel then i'm all for getting a bigger rad :D

    I remember a while back you guys wrote and article about intel thinking about creating its own self sealed water cooling units from bits it could commonly find around its lab/plant to keep costs down.

    Are those what we are now seeing in the pictures or they are just rebranded ones?

    I just don't see the benefits, X79 (rumours say), that doesn't have native usb 3.0, pci-express 3.0. Maybe 2x16 pci-expxress 2.0...

    To me SB-E are just big kick ass home servers, too expensive :/

    I'm confused. I though Ivy bridge was socket 2011 and Sandy Bridge E was a 22nm socket 1155 update.
    Is that not the case? Then what's the difference between Ivy Bridge and Sandy Bridge E then?

    I'm not sure but it seems Intel might just not want PCI-3 mentioned because there isn't any devices which support it. Gigabyte and MSI are implying that some sort of CPU architecture related to the X79 chipset will feature PCI-3 support in future (Ivy Bridge-E anyone?).
