 Wouldn't POST December 15, 2008
Tim Adams (Virginia USA)
Nice board, sadly it wouldn't POST or display video. Tried different memory with no luck. Pulled the CPU and reinstalled it, still no joy. I had also installed a brand new Antec 550 watt PSU at the same time I installed the new MOBO. I always swap the PSU at the same time I swap a motherboard. While I'm sure this is a great MOBO if you get a good one, I didn't. I decided to reinstall my trusty Asus P5B Deluxe. The USB ports were failing one by one on that board, but it turns out my OLD PSU was going bad. The Asus board works perfectly with the new PSU. So I RMA'd the EVGA board and got a refund.

Works great. If you get a rebate, be prepared to contest it because they may say you didn't sent all the required docs.
Best Motherboard So Far. August 12, 2008
Jason Flores (highland lakes,nj USA)
this is prob. one of the best motherboards i have owned so far. very easy to overclock, with a ton of options. quickly changed from air to watercooling with it also. only thing is if you use triple SLI you will lose all your pci slots unless you watercool the video cards. other than that, very stable and powerful motherboard. no complaints. only praise.
P.S. if you plan on watercooling your northbridge along with your CPU you'll need to get a custom waterblock for it. i used EK custom, it works great. also, you will have to get a fan to cool the southbridge and not interfear with your video card. they have one on newegg for about 8 bucks i think. fits perfect.
beware of its size August 4, 2008
Mr. Mahmoud Maatouk
the 780i is a great motherboard for heavy gamers and graphic designers. i have a 9800gtx, an intel quad core, 4BG rams,and a 500Gb HDD all running smoothly. but be sure that you get a case the will accommodate its size, believe me it's a big motherboard. the bigger the case the better the cooling. a great thing about it is the 3 way sli support with is great for further enhancement, and of course the 8 GB ram support. however beware that it only supports 800 Mhz ddr2 rams and up to 1200 in sli mode, so don't bother and buy the 1066 or higher ramms. finally, it is a good motherboard that it delivers.

I am building my first gaming PC and thought this would be a good starting point. So after days of reading reviews and deals I chose the 780 SLI. So far, it has been nothing but problems. Installation was very easy!! Along with a dual core quad processor 2.8, 4GB RAM, 8800GT VID Card and 500GIG HD. Went to install windows (three hours format-something's wrong) and received damaged HD or bad connection with media player meassage. Nothing wrong with HD or DVD player. So it's either motherboard, processor or memory. All three came from Amazon. I hope they don't give me any S$%^ making the returns. Western Digital is helpful as well as EVGA. I thought this would be a simple process, but I discovered different. If returning all three does not work, I will just give up and keep my AMD 64 workhorse.
