Looks like we'll finally get some reviews of the new 8 core Haswell-e and the X99 Socket 2011 platform within the next two weeks. :)

Sweeeeeeeeet!
Tick tock...
Edit: Are there any X99 mobos available? Not seeing any on newegg.
And . . . It's official if it's on Anandtech, right? :) http://www.anandtech.com/show/8426/t...7-5820k-tested
Hmmm, Intel Core i7-5960X “Haswell-E” $1K+ for an 8-core CPU? That's esoteric territory. Way beyond my reach. But, for those that can afford, ^:)^ enjoy.
A bunch of x99 mobos were mentioned on anantech's twitter feed today.
Yeah, it's going to take me a while to sort the info, as I'm on a three day trip here. They have these clocked so low compared to the 4 and 6 core versions, that we really need to figure out how much crunching power we're actually getting here for the watt burn as well as crunching power per dollar, and then see if these make any sense or not.
