Any word on NF4 availability?

[SickBeast]

I don't need SLI, although it would be a very nice bonus.

Any word on when the first NF4 motherboard will ship, or an AT review date? I suppose NF3 would suffice, but I would like PCI-E and SATA-2.

Do you have anything to base that from?

In the recent AT article about SLI, MSI said they would have an SLI NF4 board by the end of December. I don't know if that means retail availability.

Thanks klah.

I wonder if I can pre-order a board anywhere. I really need this system in the near future.

Yeah everyone has a brand preference. I usually go with Asus or Abit, depending on feature set. I've never used DFI. For some reason I don't trust that brand yet. They're also very difficult to find in stores.

just cant wait till someone makes an sff with nf4 or a micro-atx
pci-e is probably the biggst benefit, because of cards such as X700pro

This means i'll have to blow up another $1k.
