solid board

-Probably one of the cheapest 590 boards out there
-Full speed PCI-E16
-Quiet chipset cooler
-Two digit error display on mobo

I'm not a fan of active northbridge coolers, but this one is quiet thus far. I hope it lasts. The rear panel was a little loose in spots (PS2 connections mainly). If your hoping for a the rebate, good luck. I abided by all of the current promos stipulations and was still denied. after some harsh words i convinced them to send me one for an 8800gts i also bought, but the mobo? after a while they just start ignoring you. HORRIBLE SUPPORT EVGA gets a F-!

Overall I am happy with the board. And in the past i havent been let down by EVGA's products. However this is not the first time I've been severely dissapointed with their customer service. One thing I come to expect is recieving a "ticket #" the first time i call so i dont have to explain myself over and over again. You recieve no such luxury with EVGA. And ignoring customers who have spent upwards of $1,000 on your products is not good business.

Heat problems

Worked out of the box, and has been running since.

Gobs of heat. Noticed in the NVMonitor program that three HT(CPU-SPP), HT(SPP-MCP) and MCP are all running outside of specidified voltages. I have not overclocked anything, and I have not been able to find a way to lower the voltages. Anyone else have heat problems with the chipset?
