EVGA SR-X (3) Pics and Details

[Techie103]

EVGA is once again teasing the SR-X motherboard. This photo shows it SR-X in a final stage, equipped with an updated cooling solution made up of four heatsinks (covering VRM areas and chipsets).

The SR-X comes with two LGA 2011 sockets (it supports Sandy Bridge-E CPUs for single-processor setups and Sandy Bridge-EP CPUs for dual-chip configurations), 12 DDR3 memory slots (up to 96 GB of RAM are supported), two (one 8-pin and one 6-pin) power connectors per CPU, six SATA and four SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) ports, seven PCI-Express 3.0 x16 slots (SLI and CrossFireX support is included), PCIe disable switches, voltage read points, a debug LED, dual Gigabit Ethernet, two eSATA ports, 7.1 channel audio, Bluetooth, EVBot support, and six USB 3.0 connectors (four on the back plate, two via a header).

Give me 2 please and i will Fold for the rest of my life , promissed !!

Pretty Smexy and has all the things I want in a motherboard

OMG

Wern't it meant to have more SATA ports?

I guess its due to the fact they have added to SAS ports

 

[yassarikhan786]

Wow, a really good looking board. I'm with ExtremeBB

. Give me a couple of these and I'll be set for life for folding

ALL PCIe slots are x16?

Sexy board, amazing specifications. EVGA seem to have done it again!

oh dear god that is sexier than the SR2

DO WANT!

that mobo doesn't quite look correct to me

8 + 4 ram slots !!!! weird config for the bus

 

[stevenwright6379]

looks to me they tried to keep it at the same form factor as the SR2 and as a result they couldn't fit the extra 4 ram slots

could be

although, most cases that are able to house a SR-2 have a little extra space in them too

so... i think the SR-X could be 10-15mm wider and taller, and it would still fit in them

i do not really care... i AM having one regardless

 

[stevenwright6379]

true

though it will start to get annoying after while if EVGA have to create a new form factor every other year

i would normally sit here claiming i am not at all jealous

but sadly I just can't do that today

what with ttl's 64GB of ram arriving today and you getting one of these...

i am so jelly right now

 

[michaelah500]

Is OC3D going to be reviewing the SR-3?

I'd love to see a watercooling rig with this motherboard...will be keeping an eye out for that.

 

[stevenwright6379]

hopefully coolermiester will get one so we can see a repeat of the SR2 stacker

 

[Firat]

This + water cooling = happiness all over the place.

Wish I could get 1 :/

I also read somewhere today, the reason as to why evga may have kept 12 ram slots is so that Sr-2 owners can you there ram in the sr-x without having to purchase additional ram. I doubt this was the reason they did it but i see why it does make sense in a way

Great looking board

Hi OP !

Hi OP !

Oh Hi der Liquid

 

[Solidarity]

All I can say is Damn EVGA, you crazy.

 

[You_What?]

I wouldn't know whether to install it or just look at it.

She's sexy!
