<sob> I so wanted to dump Intel. Sadly, AMD's HEDT prices are about 50% higher than Intel's now, when you include a compatible motherboard, and worse if new RAM is needed. Mainstream is out because it only has 16-20 PCIe lanes and I need 28+ on all systems. <sigh>
And has been said earlier in this thread, who really needs 32+ cores? I'm running 10 core now, I would like 16, but whatever happens the PCIe lanes are the determining factor.
The sTR4, or TRX40/TRX80 is a reinvention. But at least it's not two different sockets for the same CPU.
I think everyone knew Intel has been ripping off customers for years. The massive price drops really just highlight that the current Intel products are not up to the job.
