Musselsi must ask, if you arent an OCer why is your sig specs full of overclocking results in the benchmark field? (some for an 8800ultra which you dont have??)
Im not a heavy overclocker i said, i do some small overclocks for benchmarks, then i put my system back to stock speeds, and the only thing in my system im using now that i overclock is my video card because it a price of crap:laugh:

Live OR Dieoverclocking is good but why overclock if your stock system can play any game thats out, just to get a benchmark score not worth it i say.
It got me a sponsor. I'd say free hardware is a good reason to OC.

So what advantage does this have over the regular 780i boards, or is it like the 680i A1 boards where they were made identically and they were just hand picked because they were slightly better at overclocking?

^yup I guess the chipset used is binned. The A1 and T1 revisions of the 680i had like $50 price gaps....:eek:
