    Intel releases Sandy Bridge-E and X79 Express Chipset

    Guess what? They're super expensive. Never thought they wouldn't be though. The 3960X is currently $1,049 on Newegg.

    This is replacing the 990X, so its suppose to be expensive, I'm not supprised.
    I can't wait to see benchmarks tho :icon_mrgreen:

    AMD doesn't stand a chance..

    Sometimes measuring the bottleneck can be interpreted in so many ways. The only Thing ATI can render better then Nvidia is BSoD.

    looks like those who buy into the x79 chip-set can rest easy knowing that those boards will apparently be able to use ivy bridge-e as well. nothing like reusing a crippled chipset for your next platform... way to go intel :icon_rolleyes:
