EVGA's X58 mobo - shined, shot and 'shopped for your viewing pleasure.

EVGA have been a very big player on the NVIDIA team for quite some time, and are usually the first to offer overclocked versions of the latest cards, coupled with their excellent warranty and support.

The latest 'big thing' has been the X58 motherboards from pretty much everyone, and now EVGA has an X58 mobo of their very own to show off.

It looks quite stunning, and there are quite a few features here we like very much - just take a gander at the specs below, then jump into our gallery of pics to have a closer look at the board proper.

While we'd have liked the PCIe X16 slots to be green, there's room there for Tri-SLI, and it's got all the features that EVGA usually include on their highend mobos - check out the performance of this board to see if it stacks up in an upcoming issue of your mostest favouritest magazine(est) everest - Atomic!
