The motherboard piece by piece

We spot one 8-pin CPU power headers just behind the back panel connectors; we see quality solid core chokes and obviously the LGA 1366 socket for Core i7 based processors. The board incorporates the latest Ultra Durable components like solid capacitor, ferrite core chokes, quality components and nothing else. This ensures stability -- but also reliability and extended lifespan.

Once we flip the board around once more, we again stumble into the six DIMM slots, DDR3 of course. There is 6 x DIMM support with a maximum of 48 GB, DDR3 2200(O.C.)/2133(O.C.)/2000(O.C.)/1800(O.C.)/1600/1333/1066 Non-ECC,Un-buffered Memory.

There is support straight from the BIOS and XMP profiles, and of course then higher with overclocks. All the way down we stumble into connectors, and SATA ports. What I miss on this mobo are power/reset buttons.
