***It's Here!***

~£450 for the cheapest mobo and CPU, £530 for the same mobo and a 4C/8T and >£600 for the same mobo and a 6C/12T. Ouch.

However, interested in seeing how high some of the higher core count SKUs can clock.

Started at £600, then dropped to £540, now up to £580. Glad I ordered at £540 :).

I guess sales are good, or they sold through 1st batch and this is price for 2nd batch of CPUs.

The die hards will buy first. I had no doubt first batch would be gone, but after AMD threadripper releases that it'll be a hard sell. If your gaming these are pointless.

The core X series chips are worse for gaming. Hey if people want to blow money on something that is worse then by all means. I have my upgrade money which is burning a hole, but not going to waste it on something that is worse.

The only thing i like in the x299 line up are the motherboards which look very nice and the seem to have a higher quality than the X370 boards.

Excited to see what 8 pack's bundles will be. I really want to get a delidded 7820, and have been trying to track down trident z. If the bundles include trident z I might not be able to resist one :)

We won't be bundling G.Skill with 8 Pack bundles when we have our own superior series of 8 Pack RAM, so it shall be 8 Pack memory bundled, NOT G.Skill !

You want G.Skill you need to buy components separately as they won't be featuring in any bundles yet.
