Does anyone own one of these, or have read about it?

I have been doing some much needed upgrades to my main machine, only to find out that my 5+ year old AM3 motherboard seems to be incompatible with RAID controllers (Adaptec 6405E).
I've been holding off on upgrading the motherboard for a long time because AMD never released a chipset with PCIe 3.0 support (and I've been waiting for it), but I think it came to the point I can't hold off any more, I really want this RAID controller to work for me. So I found this one motherboard from ASUS claiming to be the only one in the world that actually has implemented PCIE 3.0 on a 990FX chipset. (I wonder how...?)

Anyway, this motherboard should even support the Phenom II X6 1100T that I currently have, so it would be wonderful (and one less expense not having to get a new CPU).

Does anyone else here have it, know it, or have opinions on it that you guys can share with me before I jump on it?
