I just found this today. Too bad the X5470 that I saw on ebay isn't compatible with my old Gigabyte X38 mobo. Would have been a nice upgrade from my tired E6750.

I'm surprised the X5470 isn't supported since every other cpu is supported on this mobo:

Edit: X38 was tested by them and not compatible with the 5xxx chips. Bummer.
