Ravenguard is right. I bought my Asus Crosshair IV Formula only weeks before the extreme was to be released :( Though the Formula is an amazing motherboard itself.

Not to thread hijack, but the new (Bulldozer? Backhoe? I forget) AMD CPU's will not be AM3 compatible, right?

dont do it, AM3+ mobo's will come out soon like in a matter of months, (dont quote me on that) and they will support bulldozer and all AM3 CPU's, so get a cheaper mobo now, and then buy a better one for AM3+(actually has a future)

I might as well just keep my mobo then, and wait for the new AM3+'s to come out. Thanks. What benefits will AM3+have over AM3?

you can run your current cpu and ram on it and then later upgrade to the new AMD bulldozer chips that come out next year, your current CPU will be more than fast enough till then.
