EVGA Releases a Teaser X79 Image

Now it's not like the motherboards are a big secret as there where at Computex everywhere but EVGA decided to release a teaser image for their upcoming X79 product.

You can see the LGA2011 Socket and just two DIMMs on each side which is something new. X79 reportedly comes in a quad-channel i.e. 256-bit memory controller configuration so for that you need to populate all four DIMM with memory modules. DDR3-1600 memory modules will double up to a theoretical system bandwidth of massive 50GB/s, DDR3-1866 yields 58.3GB/s and those able to run the memory stable at DDR3-2133 should achieve 66.6GB/s.

EVGA's take on the board is 8-pin CPU power, 24-pin angled power plug, nickel-plated heatpipe leading to an aluminum heatsink. EVGA reps are not saying a thing, but we expect to see this board when Intel gets its enthusiast answer to AMD Bulldozer readied - sometimes in fourth quarter 2011 (unless the rumors of the delay push the product to 2012).

From the picture provided, we can also see that EVGA has changed the placement of the Power, Reset and Clear CMOS buttons and a company official has confirmed that the motherboard will feature
