    yes, but i can't find a price on that bundle or board, i am sure the processor cost just as much if not more, at least this way, its really up to date.

    the way x79 boards are going now i would say between $350 - $500 your not going to really find it yet, it was just announced on the 3rd it seems.
    CPU would be:
    3930k = $599
    3960X = $1049

    the cpus don't come with any heatsink/cooling so your going to need that too.
    whats is your current setup?
