How is that board so cheap , it has quad SLI , and all the reviews are good ?
Sounds too good to be true.

nvm the 965 extreme is at 3.2 and it still loosing by "1FPS"

and that is only one benchmark and from crappy GTA4..doesn't say much anyways

obviously i7's (especially the extreme) completely walks away from the phenomII x4's

Highest reached on the 955 was 7.127 GHz
The 920? 5.463 GHz.

Core i5 ftw. There is a lot of talk of i7 being discontinued. 1366 boards and triple channel ram are too expensive anyway. The lowest core i5 should perform very well and be cheaper and will be able to be paired with a cheaper board with dual channel ram. You try putting together an i7 build with $800 CAD, its probably nearly impossible unless you cut every corner imaginable.

Here's what I'm considering now.

$250 for a Flaming Blade and 6 gigs of PQI ram. Naaa not too expensive at all.
