Eighty eyes upon new toys

If only it were passively cooled! A new graphics SKU I broke news of at Computex has shown up on my doorstep in recent days. Extreme pipelines are the order of the day for this low-end-of-the-midrange board with a very reasonable price. [RolfHarris]Can you guess what it is yet?[/RolfHarris]



Now this thing's more up my street! All I need is a masterful graphics card for it to drive and NVIDIA's sly graphics tech could be caught up in the, well, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what I'm blethering on about

Not sure when the reviews will pop up, but keep crossed eyes out for some firey articles. Oh dear God, shoot me now

See how little you know !

That is obviously a workstation offering that focuses its entire rendering capability on precision 2D graphics

You sound like the kind of person who would also have trouble understanding the process of taking advanced 3 dimensional images and presenting them in a 2D environment - maybe you should do some research here
