I really want to get my hands on one of these, and if the price is right (as you just wrote on facebook) then I think I might have to take one for a spin

This looks like the cats meow! I just hope you don't have to do anything silly to it like I had to mill off about 4mm on the heatsink for the mosfets. Only 2 touched the thermal pad, the rest of the heat sink hit other components on the board. So much for MSI's flagship... I hope Gigabyte will do me proud!

I can't wait for the results... Just to see the differences between OC and UD7...

Just watched the new vid....dry ice! Hoohoo gonna be good. I would say one thing about dry ice though, if you have any left over on friday night and you go to the boozer, one wee block of dry ice in your mates pint can have a spectacular effect
Just wear gloves though...
Hey, just watched the Gigabyte X58-OC - dry ice video. Sorry if this is the wrong thread to ask this question.
Why do you have to import dry ice into the UK??
I can go to my local grocery store and just ask for some.
Its not "sold on the shelves," but I can just go in the back to the meat department and they'll gladly give me a couple pounds (lbs.) for free!
I use it to ship perishables to family across the country and not pay over-night rates.
(Yes, I know the package has to have ventalation).
Just curious, seems odd.
I'm not a Yank, btw, I'm a Cajun

Hey kohlm901,
We dont have to import dry ice, its made in the uk! Most suppliers do mail or internet order, as it has a limited shelf life and doesnt have a huge number of uses outside industry (do smoke machines still use CO2?). The lab I work in goes through hundreds of kilos a year, all made locally!
Just realised why may have asked that. Tom lives on the Isle of Wight (I think!) and they may not have local suppliers there.

Methinks Tom should shove a cam in the corner and pop his good self on Ustream next time he has a go at this.
Would be fun to watch him cursing at the test bench!
