Nice board, ridiculously expensive though.

I'm going to be annoying: What does the included northbridge fan look like/look like installed?

I haven't seen Jason online today, so I took a couple pictures of my 790i SLI board for you Dan. (sorry it took so long, had to take some stuff out to get a better shot)

Dammit Nate, what took you so long, I was so eager to see those pictures I haven't done anything but hit F5 on this page till you posted them. :finga:

haha.

No worries about the time it took, thanks for taking the time out to strip half your rig out to get a decent shot!

Not to derail this thread, but I'd love to see (and I'm sure others would) the current state of your PC. In fact, I'm going to get as many people to post pics of their PCs as I can (in another thread), I hope you'll pop by and post in it :P
