The skull and crossbones probably means it's not ROHS.

If you notice on that motherboard, under the last PCIe x1 slot on the bottom of the board, it says "Joe's order the smackover special". Joe meaning AMD and the smackover special being Nehalem ?

Good eye. LMAO.


That AUX power molex on the board is in a horrible location.

People, this is an engineering board. It is not designed for practicality or aesthetics. It's intended to work, give access to low-level features for the engineers, and to test.

Looks like they added a backplate to the socket, but not for the heatsink. We'll see if this changes.
