Gigabyte and the X79 Refresh

Intel's Sandy Bridge-E platform is slated to be with us well into 2013. Thus if you want the highest performing system with no expense spared, there is only one way to achieve this - through the X79 chipset. This chipset has been with us since November, and typically eight months into a chipset we get a new set of motherboards based on feedback and updates. Such is the case when we met with Gigabyte today, who showed us their top end X79 refresh board.
