If you select the Tyan K8S as the motherboard it comes up at $155 but if you buy it separately it is $455. Same goes with the Gigabyte GA-78DRH; $99 in the combo, $150 outside the combo.

It's okay, not really a good deal considering that you have to add store priced opterons into the combo with a heatsink to make it purchasable.

Smoking! Thanks for the deal!
I configured 4 cores + hs/fans + MB for just over $700'ish

Care to break that down as to which board/CPU's you configured? The two $155 Tyan K8S boards are not the D model, meaning they can't handle dual-core CPUs, according to Tyan's site.

Good catch, ir0nw0lf. This deal just became alot less hot for me. Wish, I would have caught it before I posted the deal. Ahh well.
