Long story short, I bought into the x79 Xeon gold rush. My Intel DX79TO just crapped out, and in a rush I miraculously won an fleabay auction on a Sapphire Pure Black x79n for a fantastic price.
Did a quick search and saw the reviews were pretty favorable, but all of those were from 2012. Anyone on here have current experience with this main board? Due to conflicting information, I didn't find out till it was too late that it is not SLI ready and I use dual 770s... Anyone get different SLI to work on with hyperSLI or different SLI?
This seems to only really have been prevelent in Europe and Russia... Most of the hits on Google are from non English forums. I also see that the CPU compatibility list is mostly i7 extremes, although I have seen E5-2670, which I'm using, pop up in some of the forum posts (mostly in cyrillics). Any info or insight is greatly appreciated.
Worst case scenario I have to ditch my cards in favor of AMD (notime what I want) or I get to resell this board and try to find another that works with my CPU.
Thanks
