Any mobo that has an SB750 will unlock a 550 or a 720....
This is an excellent board that unlocks very well :
GIGABYTE GA-MA790XT-UD4P AM3 DDR3 AMD 790X

Waiting on my next paycheck as well to buy this and some DDR3......

Roger on that. Yeah, I got a Biostar T-series board right now with a 720BE. It unlocked it like a charm.
I just wasn't sure if anyone knew what mobos had or had not been BIOS updated to prevent unlocking, as there was a rumor mobo makers were gonna do that. Kinda scared to get a 550BE now and not be able to get a mobo to unlock it, or back-rev the BIOS to a stable older one to allow it.
BTW, I'd been looking at the UD5P to have full 2-channel 16x PCIe, as well as the ASUS M4A9T (i think?) and the MSI GD70 model 790 mobo.
I'm kinda ready for all the new chipsetted mobos to come out too. Maybe it will do a little price drop on the current top-end AM3 boards.
Savin pennies is important...can mean another HD, better video, or better memory.
