I dunno why they don't mass-produce them at a lower cost, people are gonna gobble them up real quick. They could easily double/triple their profits if they made millions of them and sold them at ~20 bucks cheaper.

^exactly, and they could even charge the price they intend too, and if they help people squeeze a few mhz out of their overclocks, they'll still buy them quicker than they can be made

Looks interesting. If the price was similar to the normal Lanparty (or even $20 to $25 more) it'd catch on like wildfire.

Supposedly these have been delayed as the special box wasn't upto spec.

& apparently DFI USA have said that they don't intend to handle that line.

now that is expensive, you are better off having one that wont last as long before paying that sort of money.
