Interesting, although that NB heatsink is over the top. Fin density is way more than optimal for passive cooling. It doesn't mention it in those specs, but this board apparently has 10-phase CPU power, instead the eight that the normal X58 board has. Nice touch on skipping a card slot beneath the first PCI-E slot. Nobody buying this board is putting anything in that particular space anyway.
