DFI LanParty 790FX Pictured

The little gap is for that big external heatsink thingie they do that you attach through the I/O shield as per their P35 board.
I saw this board up and running in DFI's lab about a month or so ago and it had a tiny little heatsink on the chipset at the time and no cooling on the digital VRM.
The VoIP module is similar to the SkyTel or TelSky things that Asus and MSI are using in as much as it's a card that sits in a PCI slot and you connect your phone to it. It then routes your Skype calls to it. The card also has to be attached to the onboard sound module.
It's also unlikely that there's enough PCI Express bandwidth for all those PCIe slots on the board to run at full speed.
 
As I don't care for colour schemes on something I don't even look at as I'm too busy watching my monitor... I want one of those.

Isn't black and yellow DFI's situated colour scheme? I know that Gigabyte are green with lighter greens, and Asus are either black with white/red or gold with black/blue. I think black and yellow is a very easy way to pick a DFI board at a glance, the green is just breaking tradition though.

Edit: Is that 7!! fan connections I see. excluding the CPU one?
 
yeap i count them 7 fan connectors 5 3 pins 2 4pins
 
IMO the DFI's are the best of the best for overclockers...more options than options them selves:rockout: Nice to see physics will be on it;)
 
Why they didn't go with the same color Scheme as the P35 I have no clue and I guess its back to the sucky Minor Yellow again (sigh):slap:
 
dude it was yellow and orange on the boards and this new board is close to the color scheme of the P35 regardless
 
any other motherboards coming out soon from Asus, MSI, Gigabyte, Abit with the new chipsets?

How did they come up with that color scheme?
This is what I am thinking :




Guy 1 : "Hey Guy2, what color do you think sucks the most on a motherboard?"

Guy2 : "Yellow really sucks.... what do you think Guy3?"

Guy3 : "Pea green is about as bad as you can get"

Guy1 : "Great, pea green and yellow it is!"

Reminds me of the classic;

Well on the P35 Route its Asus Blitz Formula with 500+ Overclock, DFI LP UT 35 only does about 490 which the Abit IP35 Pro does, For Intel Side, we will see if Asus does the same thing with the AM2 Part.
