€349 in the states of the European Community... If you convert that into dollars based on the current exchange rate ($1.38) it comes out to $485!!

playing with this board right now and the digital PWM is rock solid with a Wolfdale and a QX9650, both at 4500MHz. It's an expensive board but I think it's a fantastic rival to the Strike 2 Extreme from Asus and the 790i Ultra that it's sort of replacing.
