All I know is my motherboard is holding everything else back. Just bought an EVGA PSU and couldn't be happier. This would be an unreal upgrade, thanks guys.

Not that the new x99's look bad, cause they really don't, but I would love to see a new color scheme. Or maybe even just the Classified get a separate color scheme.

I hope to see in the future all 3.0 usb ports and more sata ports :) This is the one area i'm a little disappointed in with the eVGA X99 offerings. But the rest if the boards are so nice...

Style comes at a price. I would like to see what a 6 core 2011 socket intel would do.

While most others are posting positive and raving things about the new EVGA boards I will choose to focus on the negatives. The one HUGE let down with all of these boards is there is zero support for SATA Express. While the technology is still very new EVGA kind of shot themselves in the foot with this one. 99% of other manufactures have SATA Express support on their boards though there is nothing to utilize the technology at least it is there for when we can use it. The next item is the Core Surround audio, again this is a "Flagship" only feature, if you're willing to shell out top dollar for a board, not saying that $299.99 or $249.99 is pocket change. The final thing is M.2 support. The only board that supports full length M.2 is the "Flagship" motherboard. I feel scammed if I go out and spend $299.99 on the FTW model and the the FTL features. This setup of the boards is a smack in the face to the people who buy the FTW model. You can get the Micro model and get M.2 Slot E Support for $249.99 whereas spending the extra $$$ on the FTW nets you no M.2 support, not even Slot E! No SATA Express, M.2, and No Core Surround Audio on the "FTW". Don't get me wrong these boards are still an upgrade from the X79 Dark which I own and I would happily take anything to get off the terrible X79 Platform where that is even more featureless than the base X99, the Micro.

Liking the exciting new range of boards, especially those blistering speeds appearing on the DDR4, would love to see what a difference that makes to my gaming experience as well as the new range of CPU's too and the great new look that the motherboards come with would look great in anyones rig.  #9days0fx99

What more could you ask for in a board. Lots of SATA ports and the idea of going to DDR4 is awesome! I am looking forward to my next upgrade now!

The X99 looks tight! The 10 sata, 14 USB, and 2 ethernets round this board out. I could only hope that I win.

This X99 platform looks insanely promising... especially with EVGA backing it up. I want to have a pure EVGA built system (minus memory and CPU of course). Then i'll really get to run it through it's paces and not have to worry about if I really should push it that last .1v or not :)

People used to tell me that they didn't trust EVGA boards, because they were mostly a graphics card manufacturer. It looks like they're wrong.

Been using evga since my 680i and 8800 gts that made up my first build. Rock solid parts that carried me for 6 years. Really pumped for the next gen to see what it can do. only wish was that more evga stuff came in blue.

The X99 Classified with DDR4 RAM and a SuperNOVA G2 PSU? What more can you ask for?
EVGA's customer service is top notch, too. I had sent an email on a Sunday and received a response the SAME day!
Boom!

So I haven't read all the specs yet but how much faster will the sweet, sweet ddr4 going to be?
The board looks sick. I gotta go look at some benchmarks and see about the processors.

I can't wait to see what DDR4 is capable of with a little tweaking. New tech is always fun to play with.

from the tests and reviews I have seen... I wish I had waited to get the x99/ddr4 (my budget would not have allowed it anyway) so, IF by some miracle I win.. it would be AWESOME!!
The speeds have been awesome and the look of the EVGA x99's are superb!

I would like to see a smarter BIOS that detects max fan speeds and alters the % to the detected speeds.

a lot of SATA connectors, 8 DIMM DDR4 (ridiculous amount of memory!) and Creative Sound Core onboard...EVGA is always surprising!!

Gorgeus motherboard,excellent implementation by having the 24 pin connector at a Right angle , Plus the ports on the bottom are facing down, and plus for neatness in the cable management department! and the stealth black shiny PCB and dual nics!
