    perhaps but spending more on the board than the processor just doesn't sit right with me, I'd rather have a high-end processor and a mid-end board than a mid-end processor on a high-end board. Overclocking will only take you so far and the closest I can get to my goal at stock the better.

    My goal is 6GHz +++. I have to move away from my MSI 790FX-GD70 as the PWMs are too weak to handle a Thuban at much over 4GHz. I want a board that'll make the most of Bulldozer when it arrives.

    There we go

    Phenom 2 965BE @ 3.6GHz 1.2v || MSI 790FX-GD70 || 2GB OCZ DDR2000 NVIDIA SLI Ready @ DDR1500 6-6-6-18 1.96v || GTX460 1GB || GeForce GTX260 896MB @ 720/1100 ||2x Samsung F3 1TB RAID0 shortstroked

    It hasn't yet, but one has just been sold for $100 and I'm fighting hard to get it from the buyer

    There we go
    Not gonna happen, that ain't an AM3+ board which Bulldozer will need. Just like there's no 1155 boards out for Intel yet there's no AM3+ boards out for AMD's Bulldozer yet.

    Bulldozer will have multiple variants, the quad channel requiring AM3+ and the dual channel requiring AM3.
