The motherboard you spot below is a new revision of the a Z68 from intel, the MSI Z68A-GD80 rev3, a little birdy whispered that this board will get next-gen compliant PCIe slots, meaning more bandwith. Initial tests with super-SSD PCIe RAID solition show a significant improvement in performance according to MSI. Yes PCie Expres gen 3.

After being awake for 30+ hours though I kind of forgot to ask .. how they accomplish it. Has to be via an additional bridge chip though, we'll cover more about this later this week. But for now have a look at the pretty pics.
