Do it now, don't wait. Heck for all you know you could end up waiting longer for shipping than you think. Maybe you'll have to RMA something... not every build goes perfect.

Live for today! build it NOW!

edit: and hold off for a bit on the oc'in

You have waited this long, what is a couple of more weeks. Besides there is always something bigger and better on the horizon.

NF4 and PCIe graphics cards are expensive right now and don't provide any benefit besides doing expensive SLIing. Depending on how much of a budget you are on, this probably isn't a good option right now, considering there's no performance increase over AGP, and the AGP interface will still stick around for some time to come--cards haven't maxed it out yet.

exactly that havent began to utilize 8x, there is no perfomance increase between agp 8x and pci-e. also, with the amd 64 platform you wont see a perfomance increase between nf4 and nf3 its just more features.
