I doubt they ever priced matched with MC.
So hear this, I firmly believe there's a correlation between sales on cases, then motherboards at my local store, knowing full well that the rest of the rig(s) will need to follow...
Well, depending on the special they are running, they also usually have a deal on CPU/Motherboard combos that gives you another $50 off on the pair.
Gosh that is a nice price... it pisses me off we have no Microcenter around here...i would consider driving a few hours to one if there was one near where i live..unfortunately i do not think there is.
