EVGA’s Next Monster: X58 Classified
Hey everyone, Icarus here. Sorry about yesterday, my Internet was so slow that I could not even go on Google and research. But I am back, and my Internet is working with me, and I’m going to take advantage of it.
For years, EVGA has been a major competitor in the motherboard market, releasing consistently-efficient and high-quality motherboards sporting NVidia chipsets and the well-known EVGA logo. However, since NVidia agreed to allow Intel to go as far as enabling SLI between two graphics cards, many motherboard makers that have been loyal to NVIdia chipsets have had to somewhat go in between both Intel and NVidia, and start making motherboards of both NVidia and Intel chipsets. And EVGA has had to do the same.
Now EVGA has taken its first few steps in the X58 market, and according to many reviews of EVGA’s X58 motherboards so far, have come with guns blazing; like their previous NVidia chipset motherboards, they are doing amazingly well. But it’s EVGA, they don’t just stop at the “ordinary” level; they constantly strive for much higher standards for performance, ignoring price most of the time, to provide the best of the best in every aspect of the motherboard. And now, they have done it again.
According to rumors given by world-class overclockers, EVGA has recently been building a prototype motherboard of the X58 that exceeds far beyond the regular specs of normal motherboards. This, my friends, is called the X58 Classified. Now, traditionally, EVGA has been calling its step-up motherboards the “FTW”(For the Win); for example, the EVGA 780i FTW motherboard. Now, they have discarded this moniker(for now, forever, I don’t know for sure), and used the new moniker “Classified”. Now, the name itself is somewhat intimidating; when we think about the word “classified”, we think of something secret, something that may even be dangerous. And yes, this motherboard may be, indeed, a KILLER motherboard. Not for us, but for other motherboard vendors, because it may perform so well that it may leave all other motherboards in its dust.
So far, not much information has been released. However, I know this much; there are three full x16 PCI Express slots for Tri-SLI configurations, and still room left for x1 PCI Express slot for audio cards. Now, here’s the killer part; there’s another PCI Express slot. That means there’re a total of 4 PCI Express slots, all on one motherboard, and one left for the audio. This is, indeed, an enthusiast’s dream-come-true; you can have Tri-SLI, good audio, AND you can now have a PhysX card that further enhances your PC gaming/graphics experience. Can’t ask for more than that!
Now, unfortunately, there is not much released about its capabilities. But I know this: this is one motherboard that everyone will be dying for. This, just from the specs, is a Killer Motherboard.
Now, if I catch more on this motherboard, I will post them here, so sit tight. And hope I made up for the lack of a post yesterday by writing this post.
