Thanks Gary for the reference link to that interesting initial review at HardWareZone. I will be very interested to see how their findings and evaluations stack up against Gary's ongoing work. Hope Gary can meet that self-imposed Monday timeline for his report (maybe sooner). We all know that Gary will only release a quality review, so we'll just have to wait on that.
The next critical question is: Where can we actually buy one of these boards? ZipZoomFly shows a SKU for them, but lists them as "out of stock." That's kinda strange, since it's very likely that they never were "in stock" in the first place. However, NewEgg and some of the other usual sources have yet to even acknowledge the availability of this board. Maybe they're afraid of the price or something.
I sure hope that Gary has some inside information on whether or not Gigabyte is going to unlock the memory timings in a future BIOS release, since that aspect of the F2c BIOS appears to be holding back some of the performance potentials on the HardWareZone report.
