I am the night...I am...
^^ Nice prices topgear :smile:. But asus h67 prices seems to be very high. Both asus and gigabyte boards have premium pricing. Can you find some biostar h67, p67 and h61 boards buddy.

It will be very good if we know their prices.

yep, asus SB mobos are a little bit over priced and that's why I'm pleased to see the pricing of Gigabyte SB mobos specially - GA-P67A-UD3-B3 @ 9.5K - the name gigabyte used is also good and points to bug free SB mobos as well.

Will try to find some cheap Sb mobos for sure ;-)

hmmm..intel is keeping balance in prices of proccy and mobo..if proccy is overpriced, cheap mobo solutions are also available to balance..good for mainstream consumers...

^^only gigabyte knows that.:-D

Where did u mention h61's cost..?? and h67 above 9k?? What they providing extra than intel??

here you go ;p

Gigabyte HA65M-UD3H-B3 @ 5.2K ( it's a H61 mobo ) and it's pricey IMO.

Regarding H67 mobo do check the specs pages of those mobos and you will find something for sure - though personally I don't think that could rise up the price of H67 above 9k considering this ain't support OC ( though it may attract some people who encodes a lots of videos using quick sync ) so it's better to get P67 for OCers and gamers and there are some good P67 mobos in same price range available anyway.

BTW, any news on the Z68 release date - saw some sneak peek of Z68 mobos but still there's no particular release time.

yep, those are power phases and more the merrier ;-)

UD3R - 8 + 2 chokes
UD3 - 6 + 2 chokes

if you want to OC then UD3 and UD3R won't make a huge difference anyway.

BTW, what's the price of GA-P67A-UD3P - any idea ?

^^ those mobo prices are really sweet and reasonable and Z68 is a OC beast anyway - 5.7 Ghz on SB cpu is really a awesome speed ;-)
