yeah i will be getting the UD5 when it comes out i don't see the point of going i7/i5 at all with my quad running 4.5Ghz. then i will pop my E8500 on my UD3P and see what it can do lol. and see if i can push past 4.545Ghz on my Q9650.

Is it just me, but on the x58a-ud5 and extreme versions, doesnt it look like the northbridge heatsink is covering up the top PCI-Ex1 and PCI slot?
