"Ok wait, it says OC_IGNITION.
Don't have the slightest clue what that's supposed to mean.
I mean, OC related, obviously, but aren't there different buttons for that?"
Emergency CPU kill switch, obviously.

More unstable BIOS.. "Fool me once, shame on - shame on you. Fool me - you can't get fooled again."

Hmm... My theory is that it's an automatic overclocker that's so bad that it automatically overvolts and sets the computer on fire.

I actually kind of like the color scheme. Haswell sure is looking good so far. I saw an i7 4770K at 5Ghz on .9v earlier today. I might just have to upgrade the old Sandy Bridge system. But I'll wait 6 months to make sure there are no bugs like P67 had at launch.

... .9v? Please tell me that was a typo.

Lol.

And that's no typo. Visit Ocaholic from time to time.

Looks like it's going to be Gigabyte and MSI leading the Haswell pack this year. No more raping my Wallet Asus!

The OC Ignition can turn on the system without the CPU, meaning teh drives the fans and all that.
They have 2 versions of this mobo, this one and the Force one, the force has water cooling connectors and fans on board, plus wifi and Bluetooth external card with antennas.

Hie... Can i plug 4 x Geforce 780 ti 2 GB in this MoBo. I understand that it doesn't support 4Way Sli. which is fine. I don't need it to be SLI. As 3ds max, VRAY, iRay etc doesn't work well with SLI at all. However I was just wondering whether the OS could detect all the 4 GPUs. Thanks
