Re: EVGA mobo 680i upgrade program
Just so people know before they give away their info like I just did only to find out I didn't qualify.
You must have a EVGA 680i motherboard already, I thought maybe they would accept any LGA775 motherboard for an upgrade, sort of as a promotion for their new board, but it turns out it's only the old 680i boards that they are accepting. Just letting everyone know because they only way to find out is to register otherwise.

Triple SLI in your future John?
Re: EVGA mobo 680i upgrade program
Well.......
The short answer, yes. I have 3 EVGA 8800 Ultra superclocked now. 1 in my computer(P5K3), 1 in my wife's(evga 680i A1)
and Santa has put 1 in my closet. I will put 3 in the 780i at least for a while and then put 1 in mine and 2 in wife's.
My goal, break 20000 3Dmarks06 if all goes well OCWiki will boast of a 20k machine. (Will toss in QX9650 @ 4MHz if possible, have not ordered it yet but I have been saving for it and the money is burning a hole in my pocket)
P.S wonder what it will fold at???

Wouldn't that be UC? Like Underclocking. I know that you meant 4GHz, but you've been typoing a lot latley.

:blushing: Ah.............
Man, even after you told me I missed it.
I worked 42hrs out of 48hrs and then got a good night sleep. I am still on call and going back now

Re: EVGA mobo 680i upgrade program
Finally got a break, ordered a QX9650 quick before going back to work.
Looks like 3 sli is out of the question. From what I am reading it would require Vista and Crysis will not play in SLi. A patch for sli and crysis may be out, not sure. My 850w PSU will work with 2 8800, 3 is questionable at best.
Did the 680i to 780i upgrade, I wonder how long it will take.
Oh well, pager going off. Time to work and pay for this stuff. In March my call hours should go down by 60% so maybe I will not kill my self or someone else
