Finally a SB750 review

[SocketMan]

The problem is that the large back to school orders are taking place now, and AMD is missing out on a large number of sales.. IMHO they should have released the boards and simply had a bios update later. If they are making modifications to the voltage requirements of the boards, that will entail much more than a two week delay that we have experienced so far.

You can bet the motherboard manufacturers are pleased as hell about having all that stock sitting in warehouses during the prime selling time of the year due to this delay.

PS: I have a Phenom BE that I has been waiting for two months for the 790gx/750 chips. He is not happy either

True but they wanted to get the Phenoms out before Xmas last year to make some $$$, and we know what happened.

I am guessing that the "primary" market target for these new boards are
the current B2/B3 Phenom owners and not the students.So if I have a low
clock B2/B3 Phenom - don't have much choice but to wait...
They might want to time the boards and the RV700 to come out at the same time as well.Besides AMD has a "new" guy at the top,so who knows.

edit*
There is also the new AOD version,maybe that's getting "polished".....
