Any idea on how much it will cost here? Because I've been considering to get one of my friends in the states to send it to me as a "gift" and even from the states it's not cheap.

Well the only guideline I have is that the UT series will start from $180 USD... So I would guess that to be around £120 ish...

So logically I would guess the following:

UT P35 - £120 ish
UT X38 - £160 ish
UT X48 - £200 ish

It's going to be more than that. The P35 board is available in the UK and costs £165 so expect the X38 to be around £200 and the X48 around £250. It's a shame really as the DFI boards are an overclockers dream. I really don't like the colour scheme but who cares about that? Once it's in the case it can't be seen unless you have a window in it thats facing you. It's the performance that counts.

The prices you have seen are irrelivant tbh, cos any stock here at the moment is an import & not officially here or stocked by anyone in the UK. The lowest board in the LanParty UT range is the P35-T2R & the guide price given to me by DFI for that board was £180 USD... which is £100, but given we pay more for stuff here anyway i'm guessing more like £120 - £130, cant see it being more than that TBH... But only time will tell, at the end of the day it comes down to what etailers will charge for it...

Currently it's looking like there will only be 1 official UK etailer for DFI which will of course keep the prices high
