Some friends got early samples and done some test, including ASUS P55 boards and mars.
They've also made a video for the test.
Seems that P55 peforms nearly equal to X58, hehe.

Also, I've managed to get some photos, take a look!

No, i mean it's written:

002/1000
3/1000

Why not the same, as in:

002/1000
003/1000

that red board is just down right sexy.

And i personally think the mars cards are bland. they seriously have nothing that special looking about them.

It's sexy though, and i'll be getting that one, unless i got i9

They took off the stock cooling and replaced it with something else?
Besides, if it was photochopped both GPU cards would have been exactly the same, they would have been 002/003. There are also differences between how the fan looks and the color.

But I want NUMBERS!

HMM but why is there no pic with both cards on the mobo?

As of right now I don't really care if it's fake or not. Just putting up pics with no numbers doesn't make anyone happy.

Wating for 3D mark runs, Crysis runs and whatnot :)
I'm surprised that the first post wasn't:

But can it run Crysis?

;)
