I am about to place an order for parts for a new computer. But i decided to look at the b-stock on evga's website. and i was wondering if it would be worth me buying a motherboard from there?
The board is the X58 sli LE.

I just want your honest opinions.

Will you be:
A) Going four or six cores?
B) Using more than two GPUs?
C) need PCI-e slots/lanes for RAID cards, controllers, etc?
If you answered four, no, and no, I would choose a Sandy Bridge-based system, not Nehalem.

I would have gotten a 2600K instead. :/
Is there any way you can take it back without a billion-dollar restocking fee?
