I came about seconds from pulling the trigger on a $60.00 cheap AM2+ board. If I order NOW I can have it friday and then have somethign working this weekend... no matter what happens with the DFI. (Which I still want... I just want it in "operational" condition darn it.)

If you get it add heat sinks to the Fets. Don't push it or the chip will burn up the board.
