when will UK see the release of the new x38 motherboards?

and what will be the estimated price range for it?

Late August/September and I guess they'll be £150-200.

im building a computer for October (need to be complete and OC/tweaked before university), so do you guys think i've got enough time to wait for the reviews and then buy a good x38?

so wiered that intel didnt impment it on the p35 as its new tech but not surprised as they need something ofr the x38

i need the x38 mobo before uni as well, not going to be overclocking or sli or xfire but i can see my self getting it for the pcie 2 tbh

im getting it and q6600 because im not planning to do any major upgrades for 3 to 4 years in uni.

but if you are not doing SLi / xfire / overclock p35 is perfectly fine, for 1 to 2 years.
