Depends on the model you go with. there's teh low end card only, no front input panel for around $150, or theres the rront panel versions for $200. The fatal1ty edition, which i got, ran close $260, but almost nothing supports the xram yet, so at this point it's debatable if it is worthwhile. There is a $300 extarnal front input panel version, the advantage to that being that it dosn't take up a drive bay slot.
