Maxi Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 Need a section just for this board? What about ASUS? MSI? EVGA? This seems a little silly to me. Quote
Hondacity Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 its not even retail... i agree with maxi... Quote
Bobnova Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 I think the idea is that the more publicity the board is given the more likely they are to make more dedicated OC boards. Quote
Hondacity Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 I think the idea is that the more publicity the board is given the more likely they are to make more dedicated OC boards. Â i didn't see it that way..lol Quote
Massman Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 Asus, evga and msi can all have a dedicated section as well. They only need to make a dedicated oc board :-) Quote
marmott Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 I forgot that Gigabyte is the first (and only if I read well) manufacturer to create a board with OC features Quote
knopflerbruce Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 I dunno, but what about other, OC related stuff? Like afterburner, lightning series, etc. I'd say those things are just as OC related as the gigabyte mobo. A section for Lightning overclocking would be cool, and maybe some afterburner subforum. Maybe that one wont be that active, but it would be a good source of information about releases etc. Quote
Christian Ney Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 Memory series, there are a lot that aim more overclockers than gamers. AMD Black Editions CPUs Intel K series CPUs (Xtreme series is too expensive to be an overclocking stuff ), Cedar Mills ? Quote
knopflerbruce Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Cedar mills aren't "made for overclockers". K-chips, maybe - as they're advertized as being for overclockers. Black Edition... dunno, but I dont really think so. Quote
Massman Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Memory series, there are a lot that aim more overclockers than gamers. Â Nah. Don't let the sticker 'overclock power' fool you Quote

Hondacity Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 Subforum exists for gigaboys for this week 3/25/11. Â I wonder if we'll see this board next week. Â Collin said mid-March in the video. Â Just looking at results for 2d/3d for this board. Â ES-CPU's probably sent out with board to gigaboys. Â I wonder if buyers will beat these ES-CPU ran scores, probability says, you guessed it. Â Marketting ES-CPU's are awesome. Â This week is still yours gigaboys Quote
K404 Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Massman... this board still isn't in retail, how did you buy one a....month? ago? Quote
Massman Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 I didn't buy it one month ago. I said I was going to buy it. Quote
K404 Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 I'm pretty excited about this board ... so excited I've already decided to go out and buy a retail sample  I mis-interpreted, sorry Quote
Massman Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Yes. The decision to 'go out and buy a retail sample' has already been taken in the past. Seems like my shitty English made someone upset. Let's change it to: Â "so excited I've already decided that I will go out and buy a retail sample" Quote
K404 Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Â "so excited I've already decided that I will go out and buy a retail sample" (when it's available) Â Â Quote
TaPaKaH Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 "so excited I've already decided that I will go out and buy a retail sample" (IF it gets available)fixed Quote
Massman Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 -sigh- Â (impossible on this forum, just impossible) Quote
Hondacity Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) ES-Statement: Â (im guessing) Â Maybe Gigabyte said "shit 2nd Gen P67 Boards are selling like pancakes. We won't make that much money with X58A-OC." Edited March 29, 2011 by Hondacity Quote
Massman Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 Oh. Dunno, wouldn't make sense not to go through with it now. They don't expect the OC to yield high sales (compared to mainstream) and already put in so much R&D cost in it. Â Not releasing it would just be throwing money out the window. Quote
K404 Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 Foxconn Dreadnought and Asus PinoNoir come to mind..... it does happen sometimes, but I don't think the X58A-OC is going to be an example of hyped-> canned Quote
