| Modder-ator | There are several reviews of this board around on the major hardware review sites. Looks decent, but still costs too much in my opinion. You can get a solid P965 based motherboard for waayyy less and still get great performance and overclockability. |

| I'm Diggin it! | It's a lower spec version of the 680i SLI. Lower FSB support, fewer enthusiast features. Should be a good board over-all. However, if you're quite sure you'll never go SLI, I'd get a cheaper board.

| How's the 680i LT when it comes to overclocking and stability? And is it worth the money?

| I'm Diggin it! | What features do you foresee yourself needing? "Is it worth it?" is a totally subjective question. One person's bargain is another's long time savings. We haven't done a review of this board, so I can't say for sure what the performance will be like. The 650i chipsets have been doing very well, so I would imagine this one should do well also. Just no telling till some benches are done though.
