Hell yeah tempted! This is the board I been waiting for Thuban support is a must for my new build.
can't say I'll need the FX part as the 890X should do me (don't do multiple gfx cards!) but hey, if this gets launched first - i'll be up for it :>

Thanks Hexus for the heads up - x

Thuban is a must? I'll hazard a guess and predict that it still wont match up to an i7 920, even with 6 cores vs. 4.

Looks a nice board though. If it is £140, it might become the new board for distributed computing enthusiasts running quad-GPU setups.

That looks a fantastic motherboard

Sure it will be my next buy.
