One thing for sure they will not be cheap :)
For sure. Then again, you get what you pay for and a little less because people have to make a profit. :) I'm hoping this new rig will last me at least a decade so I'm not adverse to a significant investment.
Check out this thread on Overclock.net. It is full of people using the Asus X99-E WS/USB 3.1. I would start in the middle of the thread.
It'll still be around a K Canadian but perhaps the price will drop when the Broadwell E series is finally released.
:) I read your posts there though. They were entertaining. I also found this so.. hmmm... ASUS X99-E WS Workstation CEB Motherboard - Intel 2011-v3 Socket, Intel X99 Chipset, PCIe 3.0 x 16, SATA III 6Gb/s, USB 3.0, LAN, 4-Way SLI, 4-Way CrossFireX Ready - X99-E WS at TigerDirect.com
NM. Just watched it go out of stock. lol
Now that was the USB 3.0 version. Currently Newegg.ca has the USB 3.1 listed for considerably more. I wish I would have purchased it when it was first released for $629.00 Canadian but I was hoping they would have dropped it under six bills by Boxing Day and I wanted to read the reviews first - which turned out to be significantly mixed. Instead of going down in price it went up 100 bucks and it keeps on going up. So yeah, maybe a summer build?
