EVGA Intros X58 SLI Micro Motherboard
EVGA today introduced the compact X58 SLI Micro motherboard (model number: 121-BL-E756-TR), supporting the Micro-ATX form factor. Don't be fooled by the small size, in performance figures this motherboard is a match for all standard ATX Intel X58 equipped motherboards, it supports all LGA1366 Core i7 processors to date, has six DDR3-1600+ memory slots, two PCI-Express x16 slots, a single PCI slot and one PCI-E x1 slot. In addition EVGA gives you full range of overclocking features including: EVGA VDroop Control, EVGA E-LEET support, enthusiast BIOS options and of course the chance to put a SLI or CrossFireX setup of video cards in a micro-ATX system. The board's build quality is also off the hook, 100% solid capacitors are used, and passive heatsink design is incorporated so the board is 100% silent. The EVGA X58 SLI Micro will be available very soon for around $200.

In theory x16 cards should work in x1 slots too.. but it'd be even more cramped for bandwidth.
In anycase, say that a fat vc and one that does not need any cooler mods... that does pose a problem.. some of us like GTX200 stock cooler's monolithic facade :P. If they could just ditch the internal sound device, that would remove those audio jacks at the rear, which would pave way for a pci-1x slot on top.

interesting, ah!
if you buy a motherboard based only on looks, make sure you are not being photoshoped.
the same goes if you are going to get married with a girl you knew on internet but never in person.
;)
Nice looking board.
Just thought I would throw that in there...
