The Vantage score @ entry was a nice surprise...
At least u get loads of nice stuff for the higher price. I still can't afford it but i dont need top of the line stuff.

Definitely seems to be a great board for a high-end enthusiast.

So it has good communication between the RAM and CPU? As its a low resolution and the score depends alot from the CPU. Correct me if im wrong...
