    so when can I get my hands on that dually board? the only thing that's been keeping me from buying an opteron is the lack of a dually board with agp...

    In the picture is says what appears to be "800MHZ". Is that the fsb? The cpu?

    any word on pricing? I know they're not cheap, but it wouldn't hurt to know :)

    OMG!

    Wonder how much a stick of 1GB registered DDR-400 will cost.
    Dang that dual looks sexy. I really like they way they have put the 2 powerconnectors together. Neat.

    Is that 4 holes around both sockets? Looks like that.
    :hair:

    As of now, there are not ECC DD400 sticks thats why opterons are officially run with DDR33 sticks of RAM.

    Wow Thrax, that wasn´t as bad as i thought actually. However, a 1gb stick is probably 4 times more when it is released.

    Gee, wonder how much power 4X1GB of DDR400 draws. 2X512 is juicy enough and can hardly be overclocked to a respectable degree.

    But with these motherboards, I'm stuck in a disgusting vortex of hatred and lust. On one hand we have Gigabyte, the evil incarnate of AMD boards, and on the other, we have the power of Opteron...

    WHY, WHY Gigabyte did you package such sweetness into a bitter shell?

    Even Gigabyte's name is a lie! Gigabyte is a large, powerful number in the computing world....Yet their boards small, weak....Pitiful pieces of meager engineering.

    Alas.
