I have hard time deciding if I should wait for the Foxconn Blood Rage to be launched. (happens really soon) or just get the Asus next week.

I really would like to have the Foxconn but availability of high end Foxconn boards in Finland is just terrible. Not to talk about how long it will take to get the boards here as I could get the Asus withing two days.

I would gladly pay the extra over P6T as the bundle makes up a lot and I just love the design of the Blood Rage.

On the other hand I want the build finished soon.

So should I wait for my dream motherboard and desperately try to find it from Finland when it is released (mission impossible?) or get the cheaper and available Asus?

Something just tells me I should wait... just a bit more...

Is this actually a question or do you just want to tell everyone your getting an x58?

You can be damn sure I want it. To support that I rise my budget for motherboard to 400€.

This might mean I have to wait couple weeks more to to afford Core i7 920 but if I get this mobo I will gladly do that. As this is one thing I gotta have. I will use this rig for years so I want exactly the components I like most.

huh what? I just can't decide between these two as I might be badly dissappointed if I don't get the asus now and can't get my hands on the foxconn either.

It's better to get the parts you want then to compromise and end up with something you don't want and will have to replace later.

Wait for the Foxconn.

If the Bloodrage is available for pre-order in Norway, it has to be available in overclocking Winland when released!

edit - in any case, you can just order it from some international store. I know overclockers.co.uk ships internationaly.

I didn't find any decent store that sells Foxconn motherboards in Finland. I even emailed a few and they said they can't get me Foxconn boards.

I can't afford to order the Blood Rage from UK. Together with shipping it would cost way too much for me.

Looks like I have to get the Asus P6T Deluxe. It's price just dropped back to 289€.

edit: this is ridiculous... do I really have to be so desperate to ask one finnish oc guru that has connections to Foxconn if he happens to get a few of these...

I can get a new 920 for only 20€ more. Yes I sent an email to korrrhonen about the Foxconn boards.
