ASRock has dual socket Thunderbolt Z77 motherboard also, GIGABYTE not the only one
Well it turns out Gigabyte isn't the only one to manufacture a board with dual Thunderbolt ports. ASRock have an upcoming intel Z77 based motherboard that, low and behold, also has dual Thunderbolt ports.
There is not much more detail just yet but I think it is safe to say that Thunderbolt is being pushed as a big deal.

At first I thought this would drop off the radar but it appears that all manu's are jumping on with TB. Like you say Plod, we need devices to support it - wondering how popular it will be. |

It could be very good for multiple monitor set ups especially 120hz/hi res, from what I've heard you could potentially daisy chain them off one port. It would also make hi resolution 120hz screens possible, spose its up to GPU and Monitor companies to mnake it happen |
