Standard Gaming Performance
We tested with our standard group of game tests, which includes Quake 4, Aquamark 3, F.E.A.R, Far Cry, Splinter Cell – Chaos Theory, Doom 3, and Wolfenstein-Enemy Territory. All boards were tested with the Stock MSI 7800GTX with 81.98 drivers to allow direct comparison of motherboard gaming performance. Benchmarks were also run using the latest ATI X1900XT video card on the Asus A8R32-MVP Deluxe for comparison and to provide a baseline for future performance tests.

If i win the X2 4600 I'm buying this board!BPB - Wednesday, March 1, 2006 - link
It's $280 at ZZF. Not exactly cheap. Certainly not what the article estimated.DigitalFreak - Wednesday, March 1, 2006 - link
ZZF is a pretty good outfit, but they will rape you on pricing if you want something on "day 1".Gary Key - Wednesday, March 1, 2006 - link
The board should settle to the US $130~$150 price range. The prices will run high at first until supply meets demand. We are a little unsettled with the current trend of pricing by the resellers at product launch but it will continue to occur as long as people are willing to pay the price to be the first to own. ;-)
