^^^
this x58 marks the coming of nehalem platform with LGA 1333 socket
it reveals some settings that come with the new core i7 processors like QPI speed etc

and overclocking the nehalem processors is different from the penryn ones.. now its more like the AMD way cos of the integrated memory controller..

also there is a problem - if the RAM voltage increases beyond 1.65v, Intel says the CPU would be fried. but anandtech says there's a trick to overcome this.

so these are all the things that makes the x58 mobo bios screenshots special :D
Asus is yet to reveal the screenshots... we might find something new in that too ;)

Only the 9 series? The 3 Nehalems that are going to be released next month are 920, 940 and 965. I guess they are all 9 series :|
