Only two disappointments:

- PCIe x1 instead of PCIe x4 as the 3rd slot (like all its competitors have..)
- Sigh, lack of PS/2 mouse for KVM users. Another USB adapter to buy.

I have to say it's the best looking board out of all of them. Will wait to see if it can beat the MSI X58M in overclocking though.

I don't see much choice in the slot configuration for a MicroATX board that can support 2x dual slot GPUs.. if you're the type of person who can cut stuff up why not use PCI/PCIe extension cables to free up a slot for an X-FI. Or a reverse side cooler on one GPU. Or watercooling.
