What the heck is this ?

An X58 mATX Motherboard (complete with SLI support) for 124.99$ can be found here

Anyone has any idea what this board is, where it came from, and why is it this amazingly cheap (Aside of 1yr warranty and nothing except the board and an I/O shield being shipped, that is) ?

You cannot overclock with that board. It's leftover OEM
