Nice. But I would like to see it unboxed. I wonder how well it overclocks.

true, one thing that is bothering me is on the front picture it says DDR2 800 MHz :confused: that's it?

According to everything I can see, DDR2-800/667/533.

It also states Front Side Bus 1066 and 1333* (*While NVIDIA Technology will provide FSB speeds beyond spec. the processor must also be capable of this speed.)

If I'm not mistaken, the ASUS Striker Extreme shares the same specs. I'm waiting to see the availability of the ASUS before I open this puppy up. If the Striker street date is soon, I may return the evga. No big hurry on my part, I still need to get a CPU and some RAM. I'm switching from an AMD rig.

yah, that was me. I Picked it up at Fry's, I do a bit of purchasing there and I got my sales guy to knock the price down a hair.

mWave has them listed in stock for $259. And here's (http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1118057) a forum post with unboxed pics.
