One thing I guess I wonder about is why no M.2 connection on the FTW board, it's on the smaller and I think cheaper Micro board. I'm also wondering about M.2 vs. SATA express and how all that will work out in the future.

I hate to sound like a dork but 2011-3 and the 5960X VS 4970K, Are we saying the brand new 4930 I just got will not work in this board?
If I could go all American I would!

4930k is not 2011-3, so it shouldn't work. That was a 2011 chip for x79 chipset.

When can we expect to see those available in Europe?
I would love to get my hands on x99 Micro as soon as possible.
Can't buy from US store, there is no option to choose UK :(

I will be going classified with a Mercury S8 case, BUT!, I am moving soon and I have never moved without my computer breaking with the great military transportation system. If it breaks a x99 micro with a 5820k and a couple of X70's GPU's would go great for my wifes computer...

CASELABS Mercury SM8 is real thing if someone like E-ATX example. Give best view on hardware from different angles, and as we see hardware on pictures, in SM8 is everything visible. That's newest design and very modern now. We will see, easy can something very good to become from Haswell E, even maybe OC close to Sandy Bridge Extreme, only with DDR4 standards.

Is there a side-by-side comparison of the three X99 boards somewhere?

Nice line up. Can anyone say why is it so hard to get a motherboard with the battery placed in a position where you don't have to move the GPU, nice going EVGA, really nice.

The batteries don't go bad often, and with a clear cmos button, you don't have to remove the battery to clear the cmos all that often, so it is *usually* not much of a big issue.

Yeah i know but why is the battery placement over looked from vendor to vendor.

No one seems to complain about it often, probably. Imagine that if there was a bad line and you had to pull to battery and that would fix it, then there would probably be a lot of complaints, but as it is usually a non-issue, the vendors don't think about it. I have seen a couple (and only a couple) that have them above PCI slot one.. It sticks out like a sore thumb and looks awkwardly placed. Any other slot, and it could get covered by something in the PCI slot, even if it isn't a GPU. They probably figure, if you are pulling the battery already, the gpu needs to come out anyway.

Well this is an understandable reason because my Z77- v pro's battery is covered by the GPU.

I just still have z77-v. All of my boards have the battery under one of the GPUs. That is why I love the clear cmos button, and if it doesn't help, I give the battery a pull and replace it.
