Micro-Star International announced on July 15 the availability of the P4N SLI motherboard for the Intel LGA-775 Pentium 4 CPUs, with a price tag of US$298. The company is currently marketing its AMD K8-based SLI motherboard (K8N SLI) priced at US$169.
The reason for it being so expensive is that the nForce4 Intel Edition is going to cost $80 for motherboard manufactures.
