Strengths: SLI, CrossFire both supported, High tech, great cooling
Weaknesses: expensive, no pci64 slot anymore, less memory support
Summary: (Edited July 22nd by spongy88) I'm using this MB with QX9775. Well, this MB still support LGA771 type of Zeon processor. Also both SLI and Crossfire supported. I choose SLI because of price of cards. Anyway this is first SLI supported from Intel. Looking very powerful and forceful desin. Specially I love that black platform. Also Box design is black and extremely powerful shape. But my opinion is if there is one of PCI64 slot for use SCSI raid controller, that it should be SUPER. I'm not SAS guy yet cuz SAS HDD is expensive at this point. So i'm trying to find out the SCSI controller that use on PCI express. Anyway It's great board and worth price!
