DROOOOOOOOOOOOOL! :eek: Damn, I've even got a case that would fit in. Couldn't afford to buy it even if I could come up with a good reason that I "needed" it tho. This does how ever raise the bar for other manufacturers.:banana:

What case do you have? Mine (the SwordM) will fit an SSI form factor, but this is supposed to be bigger...

Actually, I could see this being quite useful in the high-performance GPGPU arena. Previously if you wanted 7 GPUs in one system you could only have one CPU; now with this and the i9's/6-core s1366 Xeon's (once they come out), this will be very handy.

Not sure the model, it's an old(at least 9 years) Thermaltake that a roommate left years ago. It's server size, I'm trying to find the pics and info from when I modded it to post. ATX board looks tiny in it.

You could build a folding farm in a single system with that lol

That's their "XL-ATX" form factor, and the slot spacing is too long to fit in most cases. I really only know of two cases that will fit it, and neither of them has been mentioned.

I'll take my workstation boards ATX sized... oh wait. Yeah.

Woah that thing is massive. I have a pretty big damn case and there is no way it will fit. (the armor+ has 10 expansion slots) Anyone have $15k to spare? If you do send it to me and I will build one hell of a rig to play MYST on.......:p

man this is TCBS.

I'll chop up two cases and spot weld them together to make that s@#$ fit.
