Asus CHV ...... worked great with my 1090T

i found so far this,
ASUS M5A99X EVO with the AMD HDE00ZFBGRBOX Phenom II X6 1100T Black Edition, seems like a good match, ideas?
alsogetting some G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) for the ram....

The CHV is 189 if you get it open box which i would never buy from online. If it was from a friend or from a custom shop near hear that i could see and test the board then maybe but not from online like newegg.
 
just saw when trying to do a intel comparision for my friend that amd has http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1239958&CatId=7341 for just 10 bucks more... well shish, sounds like a better deal even with the slight benchmark update
