  • HAHA "Your Lookin At A Box Full Of SPEED!!" That's alot of meth

  • i miss those days :|

  • im getting a new pci express x16 card. my limit is £210 and planning on buying a VTX 3D Radeon HD 6950 for £210. is there anything better for this price? ( must be pci express x16) thanks

  • this board is just complete ownage got my E5300 Overclocked to 3.5Ghz

  • Logan is the best ;) That`s TRUE! :)

  • I've had this board since release and it's still running strong paired with a Q6600 quad core.

  • I got the 750i motherboard and brought a box full of trouble ... xfx support took 4 months to issue a RMA .. i hope if you buy one your not in a hurry to use it

  • so how good is the onboard audio? i have this board but have yet to use the onboard audio, i have a sound blaster audigy card installed (5.1). i have two video cards sli'd but im installing new coolers on them and will have to sacrifice my sound card to allow for more room.

    anyone use the onboard audio and has anyone ran it against a sound card for comparison? id hate to lose sound quality if i dont have to.

  • Hey dud owesome vedio, Could you please suggest me which mobo'll be best for crysis with c2duo e7500.My budget for mobo is 200$.

    and also could you please suggest me for a good graphic card my budget for graphic card is 54$.Thanks again.

  • what ever happend with logan?

  • @galeanoandres Quit show, and moved to Arizona and now to fucking new york :).

  • @gatler05 ty

  • Its PCI 1.0 :(

  • yeah it's cheap now, because it's over 3 years old. it's all old news but still Great Board but time flys this was expensive Board back in 2007 hardware gets outdated very easly now

  • best board i have ever used!

  • Looks cool, but you really should get a PCI Express 2.0 motherboard... x16 cards are not common.

  • L

    O

    L

    x16 is not common?! Almost every card made uses x16!

  • Yes 2.0 x16 versions. but not 1.0 x16 versions, they are pretty rare.

  • I used to think the same way but I found out that we have yet to break the bandwidth of the 1.0 slot, even with the 2.0 spec. And the 2.0 cards are backwards compatible to 1.0 and 1.1.

  • $50 at their site1

  • my brother is building a gaming computer

    he has an XFX 680i LT sli and wants to buy an XFX GTX 260 graphics card but the graphics card needs PCIe 2.0 does this mobo have pcie 2.0 or not?

  • yes it is 2.0 it will work

  • I hvn that 690i not LT motherboard...If i wan upgrade my grahics card to Galaxy Gts 250 1 gddr 3...Can support??

  • you don't need to have a mombo that has pci-e x16 2.0 to use a 2.0 card. buy this mombo plus this card and you should be fine XFX PVT98GYDLH GeForce 9800 GT 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 , get the card at newegg. : )

  • what is the molex thing at 3:30 for???

  • That so that the mother board has acess to plenty of power. Since they built it to be fast it probily requires more power than the average mother board to operate optimaly

  • PCI-Express lanes power. I haven't seen one so far out, though.

  • if you are using an older Power box with 20 pins instead of full 24 then you need to plug an extra molex into the mobo otherwise the graphics card could choke on power short

    if you got the latest 24pin PSU don't worry about it

  • got the EVGA.

  • touche! :)

  • This guy convinced me to buy it

    Had 3 of these LOL. 1st was DOA. 2nd Went Kaput after bios update. 3rd am using right now.

    No props, except it will not overclock my q6600 vid 1.325 over 3.0ghz..wah. i think its discontinued now. Anyways its good if you on budget but get from good company which you can send it back if its fucked.

  • which should i get? this or 730i?!?! i really dont need the 3way sli, only going with 1 video card... and it has 9300 graphics already onboard soo, idk what to get..

  • idk, if you are getting a graphics card why buy intergrated motherboard. 680i lt is properly cheaper so i would get that 1. But get from good company in case its not working when you get it.

  • hmm ok, think ill go with the 680, purchasing it now from newegg =]

  • is it still available to buy?

  • yeh, hard to find, but i found one for 80 bucks

  • 730i if you dont do much gaming.

  • wats the diffrence between the 680i sli and the 680i lt sli

  • yea i have a sock motherboard with shitty amd 64 3800+, and i bought amd x2 7850 black edition. when i changed cpu my pc started but no screen, yellow light on power button then shut down. everything was in right, pllsss help me anyone what do i do?

  • Logan!!!!! :D

  • wts the difrene between the normal 680i and the 680ilt

  • randy wheres my knife?!?!

    lol

  • W00T!- I just got my new parts a few days ago! Upgraded from a shitty G33 non overclocking motherboard to the 780i Tri SLI motherboard! My New Rig: Antec 900 Rev 2.0 Case Corsair TX 750Watt PSU EVGA 780i Tri SLI Mobo Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @3.2GHZ (tons more room to overclock further) Zalman 9700 Heatsink 41C Load- 28C Idle EVGA 8800GT SuperClocked 735/1850/2.2 4GB OCZ HPC Ultra Ram 500GB 32Mb Cache Hard Drive 22" HD WideScreen LCD W/HDMI/Component paired with 19" ViewSonic HD WideScreen LCD
  • if you guys have a problem installing your PCI cards into this amazing motherboard, check out my puppet video for help, because you'll need it! This is a TOUGH MOTHERBOARD to figure out ;)

  • booooo this graphics card sucks dont buy please!! will not work search google for no boot xfx 680i 40% of everyone is having a problem with this board!!

  • First off this isn't a graphics card dick, and second it does suck get a better one.

  • I would like to know if OCZ Intel Extreme Edition Dual Channel 4096MB PC12800 DDR3 1600MHz Memory is compatible with XFX nForce 680I LT Socket 775 Motherboard. About that motherboard memory, what is the highest limit for adding more memory...like can it go higher than OCZ Intel Extreme Edition Dual Channel 4096MB PC12800 DDR3 1600MHz Memory? Thanks

  • You honestly think DDR2 is compatible with DDR3?

  • The XFX 680i LT can only use DDR2 memory up to 800MHz, not 1600MHz or DDR3 memory. So it is not compatible.

  • pangit si dieter og si boyboy

  • how do i update the bios. i have this error were windows makes me restart and it reccomended i update the bios. how do i know if it worked.? i put the bios files on the disc but im not sure if it updated. it stood there waiting for the disc i think because it made my disc drive roar lol. how do i know if it workd?

  • Logan please back!!! You are the best!

  • LOGAAAN

  • LOGAN IS THE BEST IN TIGER!

  • how well does this mobo overclock the q6600?

  • i got my 780i which the same as 680i ( same bios and all of that stuff) and my highest OC with q6600 was 3.6 just for benchmarking, but it runs on3.2 stable

  • I have this motherboard and my Q6600 is at 3.2ghz but any beyond that is unstable

  • i already got the 750i ftw , cuz i didnt have much money but still i can get my q6600 to 3.2 no prob lol i could go farther but i got a shit cooler

  • floppy cable whoooo:D

  • wow nice

  • Logan is the best!!!!!!!!

  • LOGAN!<3

  • love it what about price.......

  • 299 with Q6600 quad bundle.

  • I got one of these for £50, good board but needs a few MODS to make it more stable at overclocking.

    1. Pencil Vdroop MOD, makes the world of a difference...NO VDROOP!!!

    2. FLASH the BIOS with a BIOS from the 'full fat' 680i boards and that will give you more voltage and tweaking options aswel as make the board more stable :D

  • where did you get it?

  • PC World clearance in the UK :)

  • Me too, was it in hull by any chance?

  • Can you give me some links on how to do this "Pencil" mod and also which bios update should I use

  • just got one should get it in the mail today!!! Thanks tigerdirect! :D

  • This version looks fucking shit. Mine is black with blue parts on it, and the sli bridge on this one will never fucking fit lmao. Look how small it is and the size of the gap. N1 xfx

  • Just ordered this board. Heard alot of bad things about it sometime afterwards. What do u think?

  • What things, I'm going to buy one next week?..lol

  • im making a pc what proceser do u use that will fit it and how do u know if a porosser will fit the motherboard?

    thanks

    dave

  • depending on the socket tells u which processors u can use if its socket 775 then it will take pretty much any intel processor whereas amd has a different socket i cant remember its name but basically its not socket 775 i hope this helped

  • logan rules!!!

  • That SLI bridge looks to small to go on there.

  • cost?

  • £65-75 (dont know about $)

    for the price it really good. already over a year old (although it will still do everything u need it to) but u could replace it in 1-2 years time for something more up to date and without ripping your balls out through your wallet. =]

  • i'm 11 years old and i build computers

    MY SYS:

    e8500@3.8GHZ

    2gb ddr3 1600MHZ

    2 GTX 280's in sli

    asus striker 2 extreme

    500GB HDD

  • i love 3:49 - 3:55 =P

  • Running P5N-d board in my huge Cosmos 1000 case with older 3.73 Extreme dual core that is OC'ed to 4.07ghz. Running two 8800GTX in SLI but getting silly stupid 3Dmark6 score of 2980.

    Yes, using latest drivers etc.SLI confirmed. Any help on stepping up this 3Dmark6 score. Note- Runs stable at 59 degree C.

    High Temp was anticipated due to 3.73 Extreme dual core was always tempermental.Ran "Pi" stress program for 48 hrs burn in with no problem. HELP anyone??

  • I love how they talk about Fallout 3 in this video when it didn't come out until a month ago lmao.

  • can this mobo support windows xp pro ?

  • i love on the sata ports , why would they do that LOL cheers

  • i need help. i want to reformat my pc but i been told i need my motherboard drivers which i dont have. tried to look but i cant find them on the site. its an old pc like 2001 model. its a biostar something. please help

  • I wouldn't worry about the drivers

  • Do you think i can reformat without them? cause i dont know about much about it. and i cant find the on their site. is it possible that its so old they took it away from their list?

  • Can you tell me the rate of the card in India or just the rate in USD.

  • You can Flash the Bios on the this motherboard to P34

    and it thinks its a full SLI board. Makes it wayyy more over clockable.

    Before i did it i could only OC my cpu to 3.4 ghz now it OC to 4.3 ghz with a ease..

  • Is there any motherboard updates to this one that are better?

  • will work but not sure how good might b ok best thing to do is download the free demo and c whats its like

  • In one week im getting a AMD Phenom Quad 9500, Asus M2N-SLI- nforce 560SLI, 4096 MB DDRII PC-800 with 2x 9500gt geforce grafic cards, Monitor is a 22" Acer P223W. Can anyone tell me how this will work with crysis? Never played it yet and wanted to get started! Cheers

  • and u fucked up by wanting 2 9500gt

    they maybe cheap maybe dx10 but there shit go for 9600's or 8800's

  • They were in the very cheap price! Mybe I sell them and buy 9600´s

  • your probably getting half the performance of 1 8800 or 9600 by using them 2

  • for 6 hundred Euros I didnt ask! But crysis will work or not?

  • Yea with 2 9500gts on mid settings it'll work fine but 9800gt or 9600gt much better just saying ;D

  • Ati 4870 = best price/performance.

  • The CPU, GPU's, MOBO are FAIL, You should have gotten Intel e8400, or q6600, then ATi 4870/4850 and Asus P5Q pro, the ram is fine, only if you paid 40-60 dollars, if you paid more, fuck.

  • FireWire OMFG! FireWire Can reach up to 400mbps! THATS INZANE ZORHAXXICANHAZCHEESEBURGERROFL­COPTER!

  • i got a 680i SLI with a core 2 quad q6600 at 3.2 and a geforce 9800 GTX+ SC at 800/1950/1150. im gunna get 2 more for a 3 way sli!

  • I acually own a 680i Motherboard right now and it has done incredibly well for me, i have a Core 2 Quad in there which smoothly overclocked to 3.5GHZ and an EVGA 8800GT SuperClocked which is beastly overclocked to 735/1850/2.2 and runs stable! Its time for an upgrade tho, and im stuck whether or not i should get the EVGA 780i FTW Tri-sli motherboard and a 2nd Superclocked 8800GT or a CrossFire Chipset with a single HD4870 which gets LESS fps than Dual 8800GT specially Superclocked then OC'd.

  • haha its a box of speed hahahahahahahaha can i hav some lol

  • BEST MOTHERBOARD EVER!!!!!

  • Only miner is that the mobo looks liek shit :/

  • Firewire! Be careful. haha

  • i stuck with this MOB at 3ghz, this mob even crash in 3.02ghz

  • does this motherboard support duel channel memory?

  • yes it does

  • Does it support 45nm Processors? Q9450 for example!

  • Yeah, they've realeased a new bios for it, which supports the new cpus, but i cant be 100% sure

  • well i bought the XFX 780i + E8400 + XFX 9600GT(i will Sli soon) so all is good. wohoo!!

  • Nice motherboard but i hearing a lot about its problems that it dies due to heat.Can someone plz tell that its a manufacturing fault cuz im looking to buy one?

  • i'm using one of these with one of the older PNY 8800 GTS which is ridiculously hot but it runs fine so it can take heat no problem

  • agreed, mine runs with a xfx 8800 gts, and my cooling system, well its almost not existent( should cahnge that some time...), no problems

  • yea well mine did die, still waiting on a replacement

  • P5N-D is better

    680i lt

    -Fans are loud

    -with 4gb ram i had problems to overclock my q6600(g0) to 3.4

    -looks bad ^.^

    5 minutes ago i ordered a asus p5q-deluxe because my 680ilt ram ports was damaged.

    If you don`t want to have sli go for the p35 or p45 ;)

    i´m german so my english isn´t the best :P

  • could you give the full name of the motherboard pls??

  • I ordered one of these and now its (finally) turned up I think its dead. i herd this happens a lot. It seems to power up, but i get no output through my 8600GT, which worked fine in my cheapo foxconn board. The fans on the 680i start up and i get 3 led's in the top corner, but no output. any suggestions would be helpful

  • i wonder why tiger direct always plays porno music at the bigginning of all there vids lol

    i mean seriously

  • awesome board. Tiger has it on their site for 300 dollars and that includes a q6600

  • So its a box... with a box inside... that holds 3 boxes?

  • i love the word floppy XD

  • How about the word flappy? Or.. clappy? WOO

  • Backorederd :'(! had to switch it with a MSI version, still havnt recieved it yet though, i wanted this one :[ didnt feel like waiting

  • If this package includes the RAM memory, and video card, what else do i need to make a computer?

  • This package does NOT include video card,

    If you do not know what you need to build a computer, buy a prebuilt system. I do not advise building a system with no knowledge of hardware.

  • im just saying, but what else do i need, can you please tell me?(i making sure that i got every thing? Thanks

  • Hard Disk, Ram, Optical Drive, Motherboard, CPU, CPU cooling, Heat paste, Anti-static wrist guard, Video Card, Cables, Power Supply unit, and a Case to put it all in!

  • ok, thank you, how much do you think all of that will cost? And i have a uncle who works with computer so he should be ale to help me put all of that together.but i want to try it by myself. Can you tell me the estimated cost for all tose coponeents. And have you built one by yourself yet?

  • For a crappy system about $400

    For a fair System About $600

    For a Good system About $1000

    For a Great system About $1500

    For a FUXING UBER AWSOME System about $5000

  • i need one that can be used everday, word processing, web surfing, and gamin(counter strike is the one that i play). How much is that?

  • About, $1000 Message me and when ever tigerdirect comes back up I will send you a catalog of the parts that you would want.

  • Thank you.

  • este loco bla bla bla, y no la emsambla?

  • "and that will give you a little higher ping, aswell"

    who wants higher ping?

  • yea rofl

  • gonna get one soon with a bundle, just scared thats its gonna be DOA like the other reviews that i've read

  • since this is ddr2 and most graphics cards are ddr3, does anybody know of any good ddr2 graphics crads

  • you dont need ddr2 video cards it doesnt have to be compatibe is different from ram

  • \(o_0)/

    DDR2 GPUS?

    Chea!

    You must really like AGP

  • what? is not me is the other dude lol

  • does this support PCI-Express 2.0?

  • no it does'nt.

  • half this shit is DOA product, consider you self really lucky if you get one that is stable ... seriously, jus chip 80 more for a full life warrenty evga mb

  • I'm going to be ordering one of these in 2 weeks

  • how much does it cost

  • Don't be stupid and click the link in the description...

    its 159.99 (-10 mail in rebate)

  • just so amazing good movie! he really gives you all your info you need if you want new motherboard!" :D

  • right now tiger has them for 99.99 dollars from 160-60=99 awesome deal thanks tiger

  • will a 500 watt psu be sufficient for this mobo?

  • no get 600+

  • was wondering the same thing. only have a 550 what psu with a cheap p5k mobo.

  • Yea looks like a great mobo i am getting 1 in a few days...W00T!!

  • great mobo, got it when TD was selling it for $99! awesome, fast, best buy ever :)

  • is it really so loud?

  • where the evga one at?

  • Does this have its own onboard sound or do you need a seperate one?

  • im pretty sure its onboard not sure though

  • Does this have its own onboard sound or do you need a seperate one?

  • yes it has onboard 7.1 sound

  • is there a big difference between 2.66ghz quad-core and 2.4ghz quad-core.

  • slight speed difference. that's all.

  • but i just want to know is it worth the $200 extra u have to pay for the 2.6 quad-core

  • get the Q6600 save yourself the extra 200 buy a zalman cpu cooler for like 60 dollers and overclock it. i mean with 200 dollers you could go with liquid cooling and have the q6600 in the ghz range stable.

  • What does PCI mean? I'm trying to learn all these computer terms. Too confusing.

    GDDR3, PCI 16, 1GB, ATI, etc....
