I just found an LGA775 motherboard with a quadrupled triple phase VRM. And counting them, it does appear to have 4x3 phases. Not even that, its marketed as actually having that, instead of just them saying "12 phase VRM" or in the case of Asus "true 16 phase VRM". Some mobo manufacturers used to be far more honest 10-11 years ago.

    I agree. Nowadays they throw RGB on the board like their life depends on it and you won’t see the actual specs unless you look online.

    I'm kind of glad now that I haven't gotten rid of any of my LGA775 parts. As it turns out, back then with some manufacturers what you saw was advertised on the box was exactly what you got. Meaning that my Asus P5q Deluxe (which currently only has 2x RAM slots/1x memory channel working for 4GB total RAM) is probably getting replaced with a certain X38 LGA775 board from Gigabyte.

    Mainly to kids though. They show far more enthusiasm for RGB anything than the majority of adults.
