I hope you are right & its not north of 400 Euros.....

[Aivas47a]

Yikes! 359 euros is almost US$500. For that price, this board better be the Classified Killer.

What a joke!

No way I'm paying that much for it. Overclocking masterpiece be damned!

[marmott]

a quick look to price in France :

P6T7 WS ~380€

Classi E762 ~430€

R2E ~300€


I think it's a very good price for the R3E (~360€ announced by Asus).

[Leeghoofd]

Boards are entering in mass production now. Actual release date in April is dependent upon BIOS maturity, at least for the America's region.

Any idea when review samples will be available for Europe ?

What a joke!

noone obliges you to buy it anyway... there re people that cashed out more for other brands and got total ripp offs... if it performs and can handle GT nicely , it's price can be justified... no idea if it's april fools but Gigabyte is bringing out an UD9

[marmott]

it's not a joke

I ordered mine, thats a good price on this board. Equal to €380 or $500.

[bro20000]

Just pre ordered one cant wait looks like i will be selling my P6X58D Premium!

[clock_ed]

£329, a good price on this board..

What? was hoping for £300, seems very expensive, is it really as good as the classified?

[bro20000]

I was expecting £350 Plus for this board £329 is a bargain for what your getting state of art ocing board!

[Mungri]

I were hoping for a £280-£300 price tag, but everything I read about it made me believe it would cost over £350. £329 is a very good price for the quality of this thing, I dont actually need it for OC'ing though, I need the slot layout.

When using two GFX cards, they go in the 16x slots 1 + 3, giving you 3 slots of space for each, plus room for a soundcard in the 4x slot.

You can run crossfire / SLI prolimatech MK-13s plus a soundcard, which is what I want.

I just read the boards specs and got worried when it stated EATX size, which my case cant handle. But after more reading and measuring, its only a little bit wider at 269mm, and my case has 275mm of space for the motherboard .

It will just be a little more difficult to install.

I agree totally..
The slot layout is very nice..
Also from what i hear this thing is the same size as the rampage II extreme.
So if your case can hold that mobo or even the classy 760/762 then you will have no problems at all with this mobo.
I truly cant wait for this board to come out in india..
Probably 3 months after the rest of the world

[anirudh_rocky]

Are u F***ing kidding me..Hey Toolius do u have pockets that run down to ur toes? Dude in "INDIA" its gonna cost u almost Rs:50,000....after our corrupted importers, distributors and retailers eat their share..! u better ask someone to get it from the US, u know.. buying R3E in india is the worst thing u can do man

[Mungri]

If you think that this is expensive, then what about the Fermi :p.

Good things cost good money, and this is actually significantly cheaper than EVGA's high end FTW WTF BBQ edition motherboards are.

Even 5870s cost around the same, and people dont really complain about graphics card prices that much.

[hutkikz]

Out on the 14th maybe?

I have also hear that announcement of the release date.

[Mungri]

Nice if true, only a few days left to go then .

I have just over an extra inch of space in my P182 (3cm extra), so getting the thing in will be fun =D.

[Aivas47a]

My tax refund should just about cover it.

[TBahre]

Six words:
Cant. Wait. Any. Longer. Very. Excited.

Been checking for news of this board daily! This will be replacing my e760 classified.

Just waiting for NON Overclockers UK stock..... then it is buy button time!
