At CNetPC they have the 8K7A+ for $162, that's lower than the (few) places that are selling it for $180+. It figure that's a good price instead of getting the 8K7A for ~$130'ish plus $50 or so for a comparable RAID controller (saves you a PCI slot too!). There's just one problem...

...right now when I go to add the motherboard to my shopping cart, it comes up as "$0.00" without an item description. Hopefully CNetPC will resolve this soon and we'll be able to order. I'm going to give them a call in an hour and ask them about it. In any rate, for those interested, they have a 5.1 on reseller ratings and the link is here:

Hopefully this will get everyone a heads up so when they *do* fix the problem in their system (hopefully without raising the price!) those who wanted this mobo like myself can jump on it.

Update: Been trying to call 'em, haven't been able to get through to a real person, but nor is the problem with the mobo on their site fixed. Will keep trying until I get an answer or it shows up in my cart properly.

Update AGAIN: The site is working! Hot dog. $11.95 shipping comes out to $173.95, currently the cheapest I can find this board anywhere. Make note that their listing on Pricewatch currently says $173, so either they haven't updated it yet, or the price on their website is lower than it should be. In any case, I'm all over this.
