That $480 gaming motherboard does seem rather excessive too ...

If you want to have a stable system when overclocking 3GHz --> 4.5Ghz, it's a good choice.

Wow, you need to spend that much for decent voltage regulators?

Yeah, the ROG does command a premium. Good hardware quality but I think most of the extra cost is due to all the add-ons (e.g. premium onboard sound chip). It is a gaming motherboard after all.

However, never ever skimp on motherboard if you're planning to overclock :)
