I am really adamant on getting this board but it is out of stock everywhere that I trust. It's the perfect colour for the build I want and the gaming ports, sound blaster, the KillerE2200 Networking and everything about it seems so good. It also supports SLI, has exact amount of SATA 3 ports I want etc. Should I get a different board or just be patient?
Here is my build:

apart from al other options
its sound is also great
i delivers a sound card like performance in terms of sound quality

No I am not. I am thinking of the 970 motherboard chipset. You are thinking of the gtx 970, while I mean the motherboard chipset.

It's a decent board with a 8+2 power phase design , and the only 970 board that supports DUAL cards.Uh I don't know much about power phase but I know the second bit is great
They dragged me in with their gaming usb ports and the sound blaster thing. Also because of how beautiful the board it.

It's the only 970 board on the market that will SLI \ Crossfire.Very sweet looking board . I agree.
The power phase design is 6+2 , my bad but still a great fit for the 8320.
I am a complete "noob" at overclocking so I will only be doing the juiciest bits being to get that 4.4ghz overclock and then never touch it again.

that motherboard from scan.co.uk is £69.56 but charges 9.58 postagefrom Amazon uk, it's £74.55 with free postage... works out cheaper
It's a nice board if you plan to SLI the GPU
There is an option for £3.99 where they UPS or something drop it off to a newsagent literally a few hundred metres from my house so I was going to do that but I am not even sure if it's legit :S

Sounds good , once you get it stable you leave it alone.Have you ever overclocked an FX 8320? I would love an easy guide from you if you have whenever I get all my parts.
You can slightly overclock it after putting in an aftermarket CPU cooler with no issues. I think YouTube is your friend.
