Just got the 9950X, now I'm waiting for X870E motherboards, anyone has info about the release date of these motherboards ?
In September.
Everyone is pointing to late September for those to hit shelves! But I gotta tell you, as someone who hates overspending, I actually decided to skip the wait for my own build. I was so worried about missing out, but then I realized the current boards are basically a steal right now and do everything I need anyway! I ended up grabbing the MSI MAG X670E Tomahawk WiFi and I love it so much! It works perfectly with the new chips after a quick update and I saved a ton of cash. If you want to get that 9950X running like right now, the ASRock X670E PG Lightning is another fantastic option that wont break the bank. Honestly, seeing that extra money stay in my bank account instead of paying the new release tax felt so good... I'm just so stoked with how my PC runs without needing the absolute newest chipset!
X870E motherboards will be released at the end of September to early October.
