Not a very good review :

- first seven pages are of no interest at all. Review starts on page 8
- no overclocking review of an overclocker's board (and it's a very good one)

Btw : there is an sli-bridge present in the box, even two of them (single and double bridge). For those that want to know : 215Bclk stable at only 1.4vQPI and still tuning to get to 222 limit.
