Seems a tad more reasonable.
Note: Those Newegg links I had above weren't in Canadian prices... I was just using them to point out something to Luca. Zipzoomfly also isn't in CDN prices, its US pricing. You'd have to convert to CDN. I haven't looked, but I'd find it hard to believe that going with a board that has PCI-E and a PCI-E card would save you $200, unless TigerDirect is more expensive than I thought.

Edit: N/M, just noticed the NCIX post. I guess that must be the Canadian equivalent of something like a Newegg here in the US.
