Could be anything...could be one of the forums "best" members.
On the otherhand, could be somebody with a single post to name the board, that will never post again.
...kinda wish there was a 50 post minimum to enter these kinda things, oh well :)
+1 on that
I would up that to some one with FTW status at least, you know the dedicated members who would most likely use the board. to many 1 hit wonders winning stuff around here.

I just hope they don't pull a slimey one and announce the winner but don't actually tell the individual, and instead give them a week to respond to the announcement or they miss out.. kinda rough when nobody knows exactly when it will be announced (this is how the MODSRIGS prizes are done, which is why I mention it).
+1. I never understood why they couldn't have an automated email sent to the winner. I've missed out on a prize because I didn't know I had won. >.>
+1000000 on that, i am sure it would be easy to do.

I really liked that one name scheme that used something like Shamino edition for the board. Who came up with that one?

Yeah I realized that, but since we were on the topic of announcing winners.. guess I was just thinking out loud. :-)

So what all is really known about this board so far? Can it take 2x 980x Gulftown cpus? Still no info on Release date? edit: ahh, I see there's a better thread for this.

As several eagle-eyed readers already spotted, the W555 has two LGA1366 processor sockets, however, that doesn't mean you'll be able to chuck in a pair of Core i7s and start overclocking. This is because Core i7s only have a single QPI link, which is used to talk to the motherboard X58 chipset. To run a pair of processors in SMP, you'll need a pair of Xeon W5000-series CPUs, each of which has a pair of QPI links, one to talk to the motherboard chipset, and one to talk to the other CPU. The good news is that there is a whole range of Xeon W5000-series CPUs to choose from, but the bad news is that they're all considerably more expensive than the equivalent-frequency Core i7. That said, the prospect of being able to overclock a pair of 8-thread CPUs (four physical cores, four logical cores) is more than a little exciting for performance enthusiasts. What's more, you should be able to drop in a pair of Xeon-branded 12-thread Gulftown cored CPUs when they are launched later this year; that's 24 threads from one box if you're salivating so much you can't read your monitor anymore. http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/motherboards/2010/01/27/evga-w555-dual-xeon-motherboard/1
