A Sneak Peek at the New Dual LGA2011 from EVGA

Brace yourself this is going to hit you in places you never thought possible,

Below we have a sneak peek at the new dual socket LGA 2011 overclocking motherboard from EVGA.  The board has yet to be named officially but we can feel fairly certain it will carry on the Super Record and Classified mongers.

Looking at the motherboard we see a total of seven PCI Express video card slots, dual cpu sockets and what appear to be independent digital PWMs.  The reason for the mismatched memory sockets is unclear though it likely has something to do with total memory support, PCI Express lane allocations or an attempt to space the modules further away from the CPU socket.

Beyond the CPU sockets you'll find the chipset and what appears to be a NF200 chip.  Assuming that to be true you can be assured extremely fast SLI across four independent graphics cards.

Keep in mind that PCI Express lanes are rumored to be part of the CPU, like on the Sandy Bridge.  It is my guess that when dealing with dual processors you'll get to use PCIe lanes from the primary CPU socket and just add processing cores from the secondary.
