Is that supposed to look like a little man with glasses (maybe wearing a black combat suit) swinging Tarzan-style into the overclocking rig? Or is it just accidental and I'm the only one that sees it?

I'm not particularly inclined to think better of a company's products just because they can set up a booth and use specialty materials to get a huge overclock. Getting a large overclock with stock parts is what impresses.

Yeah, Intel clearly needs to take the northbridge down a node.

That picture at the show is hilarious. Classic geek. Parts all over the workbench wired together? Check. Multimeter? Check. Crazy ducting? Check. Pausing just long enough to drink a caffinated beverage? Check.

I reckon abit should come out with a range of Fugger endorsed products.

Fugger, lol! Back in 1998-99 when I was posting on the THG boards (before I saw the light and came to TR), Fugger was a regular there, defending anything that had to do with Intel. He was a complete ass about it, too.

X38 = new 925X

The case in that second picture screams "I'm a wanker".

The three slot PCIe design is supposed to enable physics acceleration with a third graphics card, correct?

In that case, I hope the physics card goes in the middle slot. Otherwise people with dual slot graphics cards will be pretty screwed.

OMG0XORZ, IHS on the Northbridge!
