I have a i7-930...want a 980x. I wonder what it will drop to (still out of my range at the moment).

Hmmm..... I just upgraded from a 930 to a 950 a few months back, now that 970 slides into the 950 price slot? mmmmm...... :drool:

Makes holding on to the 1366 chipset that much more appealing as chip prices for the board will continue to fall. Wonder what the prices be like by the 3rd/4th quarter of this year :)

I've got my eye on the 970 and also wonder what the price will be about that time. Maybe an early Christmas present. :)
