Are the ATX connectors always placed there on the Epox's Frag?

That looks like a bit of a dodgy place to put em :crazy:

Yes and no... They're all kind of centralized around that area, some of them are placed vertically like on my previous boards. The placement works out ok if ur not using a monster sized cooler like an XP120. But, that was my biggest complaint about the epox boards, retarded ass atx placement.

Fuckin A I'm stayin s754. I'm savin my $ for two leet cards sometime down the road.... s754 ROX .

Now I just have to wait for the DFI>EPoX version.

 

[NickS]

Support single-sided or double-sided 2.5v DDR-333/400 DIMMs with dual channel architecture in 128/256/512Mb technologies

Since when did s754 support DC?

Since when did s754 support DC?

Since when it got onto nforce 4, of courwe

You'll be waiting a while

:rollingla DFI is usually last to come out with a 1337 board

DFI is trying to stay focused on the new technology... Look at how slow they were to get out their NF3 board. I'm sure it will be the same way with an SLi s754 board. But, when it does come out, pure pwnage fo shiezy.

Yeah!! OMG time for me to bust out the 3700+ Newark A64 Mobile, 2.8ghz air.
