Excellent review and photos Jake! Nice price too.
It'll go great with my Fatality PSU.
About the only thing I didn't care much for was having to see Wendel's face in the BIOS.

I am not sure but I think a little over 5.0GHz is max for the 2600K. ( I am not sure)![]()

I would skip the 5.0GHz club...... Make it a 6GHz club. Make it challenging.

we were talking about 5Ghz stable for 24/7, not the sucide run.
I'm making changes with the 5Ghz Club, there will be some requirements to quality to get into the club.
There are only 5% of people can get the Sandy Bridge pass 5.1Ghz due to multiplier wall when the chip reaches this wall then no matter how much voltage you pump into it, it's still won't boot into windows, but about Ivy is unknown how its OC at the moment.

I agree, with a board like that you need a case and some fancy RAM to compliment it. Then when people see it, they say " Holy Sh-t. Thats a beauty."![]()

I sort of had my heart set on these, but the black would look nice.
