X99 Release date?

[Moukz]

Anybody know when 2011-3 will be available?

I need to upgrade and will probably choose between Z97 & X99
depending on release date.

Devils canyon should be out soon, I might just go for that, depending
on clockabillity.

Xbox one just came out last year. Will probably be another 500 yeas before you'll get the Xbox 99.

Ok? I suppose I'll go for the...xbox one then?! :wtf:

On paper the specs are awesome & I've been looking for an upgrade to my 3960x for a while now. Apparently its Q2 this year, so we'll probably see them arrive in the next month or 3

I hope it is sooner rather than later. As far as I understand upgrading ram shouldn't be a problem either.
I reckon we'll probably only see them locally around August maybe September.
Think I'll utilize those extra pci-lanes on the x99 more than m.2/e-sata on the z97, since I want to run
CAD software mostly but also have a decent gaming rig, so 2 different gpu's will probably be what I'll end up
with.

Q3 2014 now.

Cool, then I may as well wait. I just hope they don't postpone it again.
I read they dropped the amount of pci lanes in the 4820K's replacement
from 40 to 28. Anybody know whether this is true or not?
