You found it for sale somewhere other than OcUK?

And this board is already a legend...

There seems to be a lot of really exciting hardware coming down the line lately:

HD4870
E8600
Rampage Extreme
Soon the 4870 X2

Man... I need a money tree.

Nope, 209 British Pounds roughly equals $420CAD - from the second link that Jody posted (scan.co.uk).

yeah, word on the street is another week or two yet for North America...so you guys still have time to go cut those lawns and save up

back to work again after a little nap...i think the Ballistix ran out of juice at 980MHz for dual 32M stability. more vDIMM wasn't helping and dancing with skews didn't seem to help at all either so i won't spend much more time at 7-6-5. at the same time, that is exactly what this kit did for dual 32M stability on the 790i...so that is pretty impressive.

But don't you need to add the "Canada" price hike to that $420... so probably more like $450+

Exciting. I was planning on setting aside some $$ for a MM Horizon and a 4870 X2...

Maybe the plans will change.

3oh6, what do the hole arrangements look like for aftermarket blocks on the NB and SB as well as mosfets?

I'll trade you a mule and a hand-made wooden cart for your RE. Awesome board, cant wait to see you kick some ass with your new chip and cooling goodies. 6G 3D FTW.

I gotta say this board is kinda ugly though. Here is the one I would get! ASUS P5E64 WS Evolution Workstation Board, P5E64 WS EVOLUTION, FrontierPC.com Canada

much better looking! (probably same performance too!!)
