In addition to the overclocking features that make EVGA boards unique; the EVGA X58 Micro also offers full support for 2-way SLI, 6 DDR3 memory slots and an onboard temperature monitor meaning you can get the full features and performance of a high end gaming rig, in a small space!

I got to say: that's one fine looking motherboard they have there! The heatsink looks crazy too.

I like these microATX boards more and more. I think my next pc will be a microATX i7 or something. The only disadvantage is heat (smaller area + same hardware = more heat). Right?

true...and this passive cooler doesn't help much

i have microATX in my server...i think it's p35 chipset, and it gets pretty hot..but it's nothing unusual. at least this mobo doesn't have onboard gfx, which would generate addition heat

it's pocket rocket...
