X79 (aka Ivy Bridgy ready [LGA2011]) chipset

[Okedokey]

My reading thus far has deduced the following:

• perpendicular 24 pin ATX power connector
• 100 per cent poscaps
• larger than ATX design
• up to 14 SATA ports, ten of which can support SATA 6Gbps while eight can support SAS (serial attached SCSI)

get your AMD butt spanking bats ready... lol

No you are good for another year or two or maybe longer.

I hope so.
