| The Final Word
| From the companies I've talked to, it should be about what the X38 boards are now....$330-350, with the X38's dropping to the $260-300 range. The problem right now is that retailers buy these products, then sell them....you also have to understand supply and demand......the market will correct itself.

| Look what UPS just dropped off today :) I've got her up and running, but waiting on my last few watercooling parts to give overclocking a try. I love the power and reset that are integrated on the motherboard. ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||||||||||||||
