Why is there such a big difference in price?

Some motherboards have components integrated into itself. For example, the ASUS A7V8X motherboard contains the following integrated components: audio, 1000Mb/s LAN, Firewire IEEE1394, Serial ATA. It's cost is now $189. The Asus A7V8X/A is the same as the ASUS A78X except it does not contain all of the extra integrated components. It only contains 100Mb/s LAN and audio. The ASUS A7V8X/A only cost $137. In some cases, bundled components (i.e. PCI cards) and software increase the price.
