Any News on the 790i???

[dark strike1]

I have been waiting for this board to come out forever, last i heard of it was when the 780 was released and that was about 2 months ago. So is there any news on the 790i, i.e. release date?

why do you want a 790i.. isnt that amd..

 

[Durftard]

no 780a is the amd board

790i is the ddr3 board i think

i have no idea when it's scheduled to come out though :/

 

[NosBoost300]

ah, had no idea they were making those... hrmm i'll have to look into these, hopefully they're in the market by the time i choose to upgrade my mobo

The AMD boards are 790X and 790FX.

The AMD boards are 790X and 790FX.

we're talking about nvidia chipsets.

the AMD-compatible counterparts to 780i and 790i are 780a and 790a, see this thread http://www.techist.com/forums/f76/woot-finally-sli-phenom-mobo-nvidia-780a-162216/

if you don't mind selling a kidney or two I'd think XD I haven't read enough into timings and such but with ddr3 speeds I don't think they'd matter XD I think i'll wait till they drop to a decent price though. ddr2 still performs well enough for my tastes.
