Details in the news article

Some nice news, and good move to remove that stoopid rear-exiting grill.

Would like to point out that the 2nd mobo has longer DDR3 dimm slots ???

And to be fair the mobos do look like they've been edited/shopped if u look at the component sizes.

Could be that one is ATX and the other mATX

I did think that, but the proportions looked weird to me. Might be an illusion as the mATX is stretched a bit to fit the same image size or something.

Is what I was thinking.

Hmmm mATX i7 Could be some good news for those who do not have a lot of room to store their case.

These look good but I have my heart set on the Foxconn Bloodrage :worship:

 

[monkey7]

Ha looking around for your new rig to go with the RAM, are you?

The bloodrage is indeed nice, but note that it only has 3 dimm slots. If you want more ram you'll have to upgrade the whole kit.

 

[AntiHeroUK]

Yes indeed mate, no point having RAM that I can't use

I doubt I will need 6 slots as 6GB RAM over 3 slots should be plenty by anyone's standards. Until the Bloodrage is released I can only assume I will be getting one, as price will be a huge factor on my decision..
