I got the X58 SLI LE for ~$56 shipped! 1.5 months of Folding @Home earned me $15 EVGA bucks, then they also give the folders a 10% off B stock coupon. The board worked perfectly out of the box and it came with the I/O shield. I know where I will be getting my next motherboard!

mobo is great, more oc options than my p6t had. however, it also doesn't play nice with ocz gold dd3 1600. fortunately I have another ddr 3 rig so I'm switching out ram tomorrow, but that ram is a real pita.

Ouch, yeah I couldn't find this specific model for any ram compatibility; but based it off the other EVGA x58 SLI variations. Waiting on some Mushkin Blackline DDR3 1600, hoping it'll do

the ocz gold ddr 3 1600 is actually lsited as compatible, I just have now gone through my second set of bad ocz ram. I am going to burn the ram and never buy another ocz item again, this is ridiculous.

Are you saying it won't run at 1600 or it won't run at all? Running RAM at 1600 is overrated anyway.
