Hell yes. I was getting very worried after seeing them showing off their X79 board that we wouldn't be seeing this one for a few months.

Here is a leaked SB-E Xeon lineup for those not aware yet:
http://techreport.com/discussions.x/21557
Xeon E5-2660: 8C, 95W, 2.2GHz
Xeon E5-2680: 8C, 130W, 2.7GHz
Xeon E5-2690: 8C, 135W, 2.9GHz
Depending on how much the 2660 will OC, it might be the best bet to shove into these boards if it basically ends up at the same wattage and GHz as the 2690 in the end. We'll see what BCLK OCing is like on these.
DIMM slot amount wasn't anything like I'd imagined, was either expecting it to be 16 or 8, but hey, 12 is better than 8 so I'm happy still.
Now Intel just needs to release the Xeon E5 chips so I can buy a couple 2690s to put into this beast!
Oh and if anything ever called for the Fry pic before, it's this.

It's been on the backdrops at this year's Computex event, where close to every motherboard maker showed off its LGA2011 wares. It had been written off after rumors spread of attrition among some of its "key" designers. Today EVGA has risen like a phoenix from the ashes. Its latest disclosure, of the EVGA Super Record 3 (SR3) is more of a statement than anything, that EVGA is still very much the king of ultra-high end motherboards.
