FYI M5E overclock key doesn’t work with DVI to VGA adapter it will not fit the key. But will work with DVI to HDMI adapter.

^ Lucky you! My board is probably on a FedEx Ground truck somewhere. Tracking hasn't updated since last Monday... =\ The ground service maps indicate a 4-day transit time, but the ETA is still on Monday. Weird.

Its fine my board did show a update for days ground shipping SUCKS.

I see SuperBiiz raised their price on the Formula to $290 since last weekend, matching NewEgg... It's annoying, but you really gotta jump on deals when you see em. Amazon's prices fluctuate a lot too just in general, I've noticed.
