Something looks odd about those PCI ports. Aren't they normally significantly closer to the edge? The ones in the top picture are identically recessed compared to the PCI-e ports, and the one in the bottom picture isn't much better :confused:
I have seen many motherboards with PCI slots in that position. If you have room in your case near the bottom, shouldn't be a problem.
I think he means closer to the actual side of the motherboard where the outputs will be. Personally, I think they are in the regular position?
As nice as it is to have more info on this, it's sort of frustrating with the lack of information coming out on the LGA 2011 "Patsburg" sockets for Sandy Bridge B2/Sandy Bridge E, we've had IDF and other major events with lots of interviews from various sites with Intel's PR staff, but not one apparently actually thought to ask about it? As much as I'm interested in the LGA 1155 socket compared to LGA 1156 I'm more interested in how it compares to the later socket coming out and whether that will be worth waiting for.
Yep I mean closer to the side of the mobo. See below:

Clearly it's not an ideal picture, with the angle, but the PCI looks pretty much in line with the PCI-e to me..
Well if that is the case miniyazz it's an EPIC FAIL by Biostar as either no PCIe or PCI cards will fit in the board and it will be useless. This would not have got past testing and into production.
It's just the way the photo has been taken.
Nope, it's your eyes. They're definitely closer to the edge than the PCIe slot.

Yeah you're right there's definitely a slight difference. And it certainly wouldn't have got as far as it has if they were in the wrong position. Guess it's just my eyes/photo angle making it look like less of a difference than it actually is!
