    Nope, only the 759 and I believe 762 have the ECP included.

    Controll panel was standard withthe 759 and the 761, it is optional with the 760, it can be had for $20 above under products and then acceseries.

    James and Kmoore are both correct, the E760 does not come with the ECP

    It is available for seperate purchase here: http://www.evga.com/products/prodlist.asp?switch=4

    However it currently looks like its out of stock at the moment.

    No because it takes away the use of your case's power button.

    All you've got to do is what I did - snip off the connector tips which cover up the front panel connections, and it works just fine.
    Should be 8 holes worth on the left side connecting to the board.
    Note: it does void the warranty, but it's $20.

    Just use good scissors, and snip off the ends of the ribbon that connects to the board.
    You know how you've normally got to disconnect the front panel connectors in order to plug in the ribbon? Well, take note of the left-most 8 holes on that ribbon cable and snip those ends off. Then you'll be able to plug in the front panel connectors as well as what's left of the ribbon cable.
    It works fine. Just be extremely careful not to cut any others than those 8 holes.

    I hope this isn't considered a stupid question...

    I have the EVGA X58 classified 3 way SLI. I have my i7 chip overclocked to 4.0 Ghz. I just bought the control panel.

    My question is...
    How do I set it up so my system is not running 4.0 Ghz all the time.
    I would like to be able to use the three vcore adjustment buttons to get it up to 4.0 ghz when I need it.

    Thanks

    Cool, thanks for the info. My buddy got this with his P55 FTW board and wasn't gonna use it so he let me have it.
     
     
     
     
    So how does this ECP help one out? I haven't really read up on it yet and how is it compared to using E-Leet?

    Sirjames, is there any way you could post a pic of your mod to your ECP? I would really like to do this to mine. Thanks

    If you don't want to destroy the ribbon cable that comes with the ECP, you can use an old floppy drive cable and snip the unnecessary ends, since a lot of us have unused floppy ribbon cables cluttering our closets.  That's what I did.

    Pros:
    Don't have to destroy the cable it comes with.
    Floppy cables are usually longer.
    Floppy cables often have 2 connectors, so if you're good with wiring you could use the second connector for further mods (just be careful with those thin wires and be mindful of the A/B "twist" in the cable)

    Cons:
    Kinda ugly unless you spend time on it.
    Easier to confuse the wiring if you use a dual-floppy cable.

    Whatever you do, be very mindful of accidentally causing a short when you start snipping any ribbon cables, they start to fall apart easy.  You might want to practice cutting up the connectors on some old cables first.
