Based on what AMD is showing, you'd be crazy spending a whole crap load of money for a small bump in frame rate (if any) that you'd get with a core i7.
What if I want i7 for something other than games? What if I want a real Power User system, with triple channel, two 1.5TB HDDs (they didn't follow motherboard trends) and maybe a Raptors or that reasonable compared to the motherboard. X-Fi, Multi-Camera Security Card, Analog Capture Card? I don't want Crossfire or SLI and if I did, the Green has aren't that much slower. Hehehe, I already got 6GB of RAM.

Let me put this a Different way. I want a power USER board, not a Power Gamer Board or even a cheap board. WTF is on this board to make the cheapest one $244?

Thank goodness the rest of the market hasn't followed motherboard trends. I'm NOT bad mouthing the Processor here. I'm saying the board is overpriced for you folks will be getting. Namely, last years tech for cutting edge prices.
