Back during CES we were given the chance to see the launch of a very exciting product. This was the G1 Killer series. From the beginning of the event you could pretty much tell this was going to be something a little different from the norm. Whether it was the pretend military dress or the little leaks about the product that I had heard, I was really looking forward to see this one.

Pulling off a small half turn, we find one of the things that makes this board stand out; there is a KillerNic E2100 Network Processor built right onto the board.

After that we find a healthy array of slots to drop in plenty of GPUs. Plus, we find a rather impressive item. You see what looks like some old fashioned paper caps? - Well, these are anything but. What you have here is a full Creative Labs audio card (complete with its own memory) built right onto the G1 Assassin. Now that is something that I have never seen before. This is WAY beyond a simple audio CODEC - We have a real audio processor and accompanying hardware right here.

Took 2 snippings from it that sound really cool to me, this board sounds like a beast.
