I really want this board but I know I probably won’t end up getting it on gb and I can’t pay like 4-5k for it aftermarket

Iron165 MAX aftermarket was ~$2K, I think. I could see this going up to $3K... :-/
My advice would be to not pay aftermarket if you miss out on this one and that price seems too high (it _is_ too high). New group buys for boards of this caliber happen every few months and will just keep coming. Keep your eye out for a group buy with the specs you want until you're able to get into one. It will happen - maybe not this one, but the next.
Eventually you'll land a board with enough hype (and the hype for this one will have died down) and you can trade for it.
Bottom line - gotta have patience in this hobby and realize that new stuff is always on the horizon.
