Intel's new socket LGA2011 makes its first steps in the market as major motherboard manufacturers release their newest load of products. We're keeping a close eye on them and will bring you the latest drivers for ECS, Asus, Gigabyte, ASRock and many more.

For all you guys out there dying to test these new motherboards, we will also keep you updated with the latest bios, the eye-candy UEFI, setting a new standard as far as tweaking and setting up your computers is concerned.

One nice thing we'd like to find out is whose bios looks best; it would be awesome if you could share some of your personal experience with the new mouse-controlled bios and maybe make a shootout between the different manufacturers' versions.

Since Gigabyte has come up with their 3D GUI, it's expected that the battle will be an interesting one to say the least. You can get involved in this by making some screenshots and posting them online - help raising the bar and making bios an easier experience for the average user.
