    Could you justify this?!

    I know it's a great board and had 4 way SLI (why?!) but I dont think I could spend that much tbh

    And I thought the ASUS Rampage 2 was expensive :eek:

    If you think that's bad...

    They disable CrossFire on those boards just to satisfy their insane nVidiaophile fans who comprise 99% of that mobo's target market :eek:

    they even made a bunch of cards to go with that board see the link

    and as far as i can remember the whole package ie board plus the 4 cards cost roughly 1600 back in janurary when launched but since then prices have seemed to sky rocket so it could be closer too 2k for it now with the shipping etc.
    then you need the case just to house the beast , a case with ten or more expantion slots at the rear . lian li have one i think its the p180 which is around the 300 mark .

    so unless us mere mortals win the lotto or something we shall have to keep looking
