With the Nehalem launch nudging ever closer, we've seen a flourish of info and images doing the rounds during the course of IDF last week, a lot of which included early X58 motherboard samples from the likes of ASUS, GIGABYTE and MSI.

The lads over at Techpowerup add to the pile with a bunch of spy shots showing off Foxconn's X58 Renaissance motherboard in prototype form.

It's not yet known as to whether or not Foxconn intend to give SLI support on this, or future X58 models in its line-up for that matter. ASUS have confirmed at least one of their ROG X58 boards will offer both SLI and Crossfire, so one would think that at least some of the other board makers will give the option sooner or later as well.
