EVGA readies its Top Secret Overclocking platform

EVGA did all the best they could with X58 Classified series, but that EPoX engineering team in synergy with Peter "Shamino" Tan and Vince K|ngp|n Lucido isn't stopping anytime soon.
Last night, we received a link with blurred Twitter image link containing a picture of EVGA's Classified motherboard with presumably two GTX295 Co-Op Edition boards with LN2 pots on them. But this is just our assumption; it could be something entirely different.

EVGA's "Top Secret" Twitter Picture...

BTW, if you look left of the American flag, you'll see ASUS stickers, something that will make heart warm to all those ASUS engineers in Taiwan and Fremont, but you know - guys, it’s the EVGA motherboard that is on the top. This is just because it is Vince's bench and he loves to put stickers on it as there is no shortage of other manufacturers as well.
What are Vince K|ngp|n Lucido and EVGA are cooking...? we'll just have to wait until it trickles out. Could it be an LN2 pot for the graphics cards? We'll see.

Secret Revealed!!!!!!!


Shamino has been outfitted with wires integrated with his veins. Vince is at this very moment Tugging on Peter's ears to change CLOCKS!!!!!!!!

AHAHAHAHAA I knew it !!!! :confused3::confused3:

I make armor in WoW made out of that stuff, its really good !

[Chuchnit]

Ooooh I know I know!! Too bad somebody at BSN didn't do their homework. That is 3/4 x 4890 hardwired to a classified mobo Shamino style :D Now there is another reason why I wanna kidnap him and keep him in my pocket.

I think I would prefer one of the EVGA girls for that but to each his own.

[Splave]

thought vince doesnt like internal shots of his pots?

Rumour has it he's got a prototype for a new design thats being tested too

[DrNip]

This wouldn't happen to be what Vince commented on in the thread over at Xtreme. The thread for the get together at his place this weekend.

[Buckeye]

hmmm I smell a new MB to play with ;)

[limpkorn]

Ohh baby! Can't wait to see what's cooking! Makes me so want to play with some LN2 when I see stuff like this.

[Kal-EL]

hmmm I smell a new MB to play with ;)

Was actually talkin bout a new F1EE design but I think its about time for some new fangled revision of X58 with the newer i1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9's (or whatever i-numeral they come up with)

[Buckeye]

Boards like the Classified and what ever now thing is being worked are supper sweet, very costly tho and cost a ton more to outfit them with GPU's and other what nots. It's a very costly game we play these days :(

Geez ^^^this^^^is the gospel truth. This is why most of my bros own a parts store compared to the pointy eared bastard....I just have the components on my back:sick:

[Vivi]

its 4x 285's

[Gunslinger]

Sounds about right, wonder how they scale compared to 4x 4890's

[Vivi]

well, look at it this way,

4x 4890's are so good because they run at 1000 core each on air. if you ran 285's at 1000 each on air it woudl have destroyed the 4890, so they will beat the 4890 yes, in vantage. dont know about other benchmarks.

The 285 will be strong at same clocks as 4890;s

[karmakazi]

I was wondering how long it would take someone to do it. After I saw 4x 4890's on jody's board at my bench party, it was logical progression. Thats going to MURDER vantage and 03, I cant wait.

[dinos22]

oh how conventient to have a name like that BSN >> BSNews

i really hope evga will release this retail cause it'll be hard to compete against vince and Peter in F1OC if we dont have access to it heheheh

[3oh6]

all i can and will say is that BSN has 0 credibility with their post on this subject...pure speculation

welcome jody... nice to see you around these parts. how ya doin?

nope, and the 4890x4 runs great on the Classified, no need for that ASUS stuff :D

[Kal-EL]

So we shouldnt expect any improvements from the dual nf200 chips then?

not sure what you mean or why you would draw that conclusion from my answer.

[Kal-EL]

not sure what you mean or why you would draw that conclusion from my answer.

You said the classy runs 4x4890 fine, no need for that asus stuff. I thought that Asus board had 2 nf200 chips vs the Classy without. So I deduced that the difference between the boards being the nf200 chips was the mitigating factor in your statement "we don't need that Asus stuff".

Its apparent by your last response that I was wrong and it has more to do with the simple fact that the Classified runs the 4x4890's fine.

Gotta remember, Supes is a noob4life :D forgive the noob :confused1: who's still sportin s775 :confused2:

haha, no worries. i have also been up for all but 3 days straight so i thought i might have just been missing something.

but yeah, my statement was simply based on the fact that 4x4890's run fine on the Classified, i no idea about the P6T7 WS. but since you mention it, that is a good question.

one school of thought is that 1 NF200 chip hinders performance slightly from what people have tested, so two would further hinder performance.

the other school of thought would be that somehow having two working in unison might help the 4x4890 setup due to so much data being pushed from 4 cards.

my guess is there will be no benefit going from a single NF200 (Classified) to a dual NF200 (P6T7 WS) as i believe they both just end up pushing the data to the IOH through the same BUS. obviously empirical testing is the only way to find out though...who's got a P6T7 WS they want to lend me for a weekend of testing :D

Excellent noob-friendly answer, thx bro :D

[thebanik]

hoping EVGA has something unique up its sleeve or maybe its just the GT300's

[westsider]

i think its just a simple classified

[Kal-EL]

i think its just a simple classified
sign1 to the forum :D

[westsider]

thanks m8
but this topic says something secret had to be reveled from EVGA
i can see simple classified

i cannot imagine anything more than classified as X58 :D

[Splave]

you do realize they make more than just motherboards right lol
The board is shown, its gpu's that are not :confused2:

[RomDominance]

What's behind window #1? GT300 would be the better prize imo.

[Kal-EL]

Spy vs Spy action if you ask me. I think they were just showing off the new features on the New Evga Digital Camera about to be released. Its the "Overclocker NDA" Edition. Just a couple features that are not NDA:

- Auto blurr/blob/black out "push button" feature
- Auto NDA labels

[crio]

Did anyone think it might be an EVGA 295 like ASUS Mars?????Just a guess.I would really like it if it was true

[Kal-EL]

Nope, das a good one, I didn't imagine that one yet, thx, imagining now shock

[dinos22]

Did anyone think it might be an EVGA 295 like ASUS Mars?????Just a guess.I would really like it if it was true

i know what it actually is and i find it laughable when these retards start specuflating like that to grab attention from BSN

it isnt anything like asus Mars believe me and it's NOT GT300 or whatever the next GPU name will be that nvidia comes up with for the cores themselves

[HITandRUN]

Secret Revealed!!!!!!!


Shamino has been outfitted with wires integrated with his veins. Vince is at this very moment Tugging on Peter's ears to change CLOCKS!!!!!!!!

Are you calling me a retard? I always thought of myself as more of a de de de! laughing:rofltaunt

P.S. Some others also know the reality of this fun in the sunthumbsup

[dinos22]

if you wrote that news from BSN then YES :D
i've met Theo a couple of years ago
i cant believe have blaze he was about that absolute BS of an article he wrote for The INQ with supposedly a new 3DMARK06 W.R. with unreleased tri-Fire

told me he used a USB stick which gave him a bugged score >>> asshat

[Kal-EL]

Its so damned hard to watch a speculation thread like this when you know what it is already. Its almost fruitless to say "I know what it is" because you can't say what it is and if someone punks you, you still can't say what it is because if you do, you're the punk.:whacky:

I still say they've intubated Peter with direct access leads from his veins to the motherboard and Vince is changing voltages by tugging Sham's ear lobes.

I just hope it works out to be extra-ordinary and releaseable. cool2

Afterburner, you are my "special" friend :happy1:. Guess another guess and if you guess right! I can't say cuz its nda taunt

[dinos22]

this actually IS the closest guess so far :roflcool2shockto_keep_orderlaughing:D

lol, yep, ur having waaaaaaa 2 much fun laughing

[thebluemeanie1]

I'm going to take a stab in the dark and say 6 way SLi. Last time EVGA updated their Precision utility the change log said something like "Added support for up to 7 GPUs." It doesn't look like they have it posted any more.

[lolhalol]

its probably a hardware based oc utility like the ROG OC Station. and also probably the classified board that was used to mod the cards. haha

:P
p/s
sham has mentioned that he brought 2 iirc and vince mentioned about the mod @ XS

gtx295 single pcb????How's that dinos22????:D

[Mean Machine]

That's hardly any news, is it?

I was too thinking it'd be some MARS style GTX295 made out of 285's...
