Look at 16 seconds in it shows you the spec's. The only issue with PCI Express 3.0 is there are no current video cards that support that standard yet.

I am especially interested in the bios option changes featured on these. Man, i hope I don't have to design a whole new system around this type of mobo........again....

I have a late generation MSI mobo with my new build and the BIOS is great. It even supports a mouse right out of the box. I looked into the PCIx 3.0 boards but I imagine there will be a different socket set available by the time 3.0 becomes standard so I went for a more affordable options. Either way, I really like the MSI bios.
