EVGA SR-X

[hackalive]

Im sure we have all seen the Overclock3D review on the ASUS Dual CPU motherboard - any ideas when we may see a similar review for the EVGA SR-X?

Cheers

(PS - Mainly because I can't decide between the two

)

A recent Q&A introduction video that Tom done had a SRX in the background, so we should get a review soon hopefully

Maybe Tom will let us know when we could expect a review

I extremely keenly await

haha

I believe he said in the video that he had 2 sets of CPU's to try with different graphics card combos including a 7970 and a pair of EVGA GTX690's I believe he said don't expect the review this week, towards to end of next week he mentioned I think due to the amount of testing he was doing. Hope this helps.

Cant wait ..... one step closer.

Don't quote me on this.

If you watch this Tom explains all:

The main differences I see are:

1. ASUS = supports more RAM officially (KVR1333D3D4R9S/16GEA) - however some say SR-X supports 192 and since there is no way we can do 256 at the moment the SR-X probably wins here?
   
2. ASUS with 4GPUs is all 16 at x8 speeds - EVGA 2x16 and 2x8 speeds
   
3. ASUS supports more SAT 6bs - but is the miniSAS (when made into 4SATA 6bs?)
   
4. ASUS has outputs which may get blocked if you put in 4GPUs that take the height of 2 slots (thoughs on this guys?)
   
5. ASUS board is smaller
   

Anything else you guys can think of?

And if anyone can help answer any of the above

Cheers

PS - A concern I have is that the USB78 and USB910 ports would be blocked by the fourth GPU - http://dlcdnet.asus...._Z9PE-D8_WS.pdf see page 27 of 226.
