    I read this on another forum too.
    I'll say the same thing here: that's a good thing since Intel boards were overpriced crap anyway.

      They were well built though.

        maybe the retail stuff was overpriced but the oem stuff was cheap. great boards except for the nichicon HN problems which hit a lot of the range. just useless for overclockers.

          Is this about Intel axing socketed CPUs again?
