Good deal. I didn't know these Phenoms are in stock and it looks like it bundles with some cheapo AM3+ boards as well. Now that the 960T seem to be out of stock in every MC this is probably the best...

I can definitively say that if you are going with any SLI setup, the GA-78LMT-S2P Socket AM3+ 760G mATX AMD Motherboard will not work. You'll need two slots, the GA-78LMT only has one.
