    Do you think this will make the SR-2 board redundant?

    I can't wait for the NDA to be lifted and if the rumours are true about it launching next month it certainly will be a good month, especially if I get enough cash on my B-Day and Payday to be able to buy one.

    Think I might do the upgrade if my boss comes through with the cash for crimbo bonus.

    Can't wait, but just curious -- what's with the molex connector on the corner of the board? Just an engineering sample thing?

    Sigh, I hate it when they change the channels, means I have to replace yet another part of my rig if I upgrade instead of recycling it :(

    Might sound like a silly question, but will there be an Ivy Bridge-E next year? Might pull the trigger >: )

    all comes down to money and not everyone can afford such luxury yes its nice to see them benchmark results but will this system make my 2500k@5.0Ghz a slow system or do anything more for me day to day ?

    Y U DON'T STOP PROVOKING INTEL?
    I know intel has the upstakes in the cpu war and i'm tempted to a 2500k but with this msi board, the colour scheme, just perfect for my pc and the modding I will be doing but I'm more broke than ever!

    The news have officially became torture

    Well I was saving for a bulldozer but obviously I am still saving and if this will be in the near future then this will be my new build :)

    Many are hoping that the i7 980 may drop some more. They'd probably sell out if they dropped the price to (say) £320-350. Though Bulldozer has put the ball firmly in Intel's court
