Guys,

I'm looking for a Core i7 Socket 1366 Mobo with at least 4 PCI-e slots. This will be primarily used for the noble causes of crunching and folding for Team TPU.

I perfer Gigabyte, Asus or EVGA.

How expensive are boars over there?

Since this is for a noble cause, I can be a middleman if you wish, buy the board for you then ship it to you

Appreciate your help nster. Boards are pretty expensive.

Just came off frm a local gigabyte retailer inquiring abt X58A-UD3R which is abt 1125 AED or 312 USD. The mobo on egg is listed for 210 USD. How much would it cost to ship to Dxb??

Also great potential to lose everything. They successfully lost a set of RAM that I sent to Brazil and also stole an SPDIF cable that I mailed to a guy as nothing but a ripped (but they taped it up afterwards how nice) envelope arrived. I would prefer a hidden fee if it means my product arrives there. DHL is how I would go as that's all they do now.
