Asus swears up and down that it will be by week 2 of november for everything, including SLI, but we'll see. I'm betting I will be able to have my new system before december.

Then you don't want an nForce4 board. I would be surprised if there is an nForce4 board that supports a fully functional AGP 8x slot.

205 deutchmarks (dunno if this is right, I don't know german money) for the SLI and 179 for the non-SLI. Make whatever conversions you need.

Just out of curiosity, what is the conversion for german to american money?

Those are in Euros.

MSI K8N Neo4 Diamond (nForce4 SLI): $275
MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum (nForce4 Ultra): $235

Asus A8N-E Premium: November 2004, $190-260
Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe: December 2004, $260-325
Asus A8N-E Standard? (unannounced): 2005, $130-190

tomshardware.com
As our nForce4 Ultra sample did not exactly work as smoothly as expected, we asked the three big motherboard guys -- Asus, Gigabyte and MSI -- for their opinions on nForce4 availability.

Asus
Availability of nForce4 Ultra motherboards A8N-E (Premium/SLI):

second week of November
Asus is considering bundling two GeForce 6600GT graphics cards with the A8N-E SLI.

Gigabyte
nForce4 Ultra motherboards will be ready at the beginning of November. nForce4 SLI and VIA K8T890 will not be available before the beginning of December.
Product Name: Gigabyte 8 Sigma Series, e.g. GA-K8NXP-9 (NVIDIA nForce4 Ultra)

MSI
The K8N Diamond (featuring nForce4 SLI) is already slated to hit the shelves in late November. The product name might be changed to K8N Neo2 Extreme Edition in the US.
The K8N Neo4 Platinum will be the Ultra version, available two weeks earlier than the Diamond edition. It is supposed to be on the shelves by the middle of November.

>>>
$135 and $118 on the conversion.
>>>

for sure not.

a) Deutsche MArk doesnt exist anymore

b) Euro is MORE worth than the dollar....actual is:

1 EU == $1.29 USD

btw. dollar just hit a record low against the Euro

multiply these prices by 1.29 and then get the amount in dollar:


++++++++++++ if these are really in EU ??????? ++++++++++++++++

MSI K8N Neo4 Diamond (nForce4 SLI): $275
MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum (nForce4 Ultra): $235

Asus A8N-E Premium: November 2004, $190-260
Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe: December 2004, $260-325
Asus A8N-E Standard? (unannounced): 2005, $130-190

++++++++++++ which i DOUBT since the symbol for the EU is *not*the "$" !!!!!! +++++
It would have the E-symbol or say "EU" :)

Edit: And yeah, they DO have the MSI NForce4 Ultra on www.alternate.de for 189 EU....whow..i should move back to Germany..where *IS* that stuff here ??????

ps i dont really get why you would think something like that anyway you dont have any reason to the chipset cant even do agp its a pcie chipset and they would have to include some sort of bridge on the mainboard which would be pathetic ie make make the boards more expensive while eliminating the advantage of nforce 4 and the reason why it was developed in the first place. and there are plenty of socket 939 nforce 3 boards out there all in stock. if you order one today youll have it in two days.
