I would buy this board tomorrow, but I'm not switching to DDR3 until Nehalem arrives.
Just can't justify the costs when I know I'll just be upgrading again before the year is out.

Nice review Jason! =D>

I concur. I'm waiting for Nehalem before I go buy DDR3 RAM. Thanks for all the screens of the BIOS. :)
