Mid-march or April.

TBH you don't really need a SB for designing apps.
And if you don't use too many HDDs/DVD, you can buy it now.

Buy an i7 950 rig or phenom 2 1090t based rig if you cannot wait. They will give you sufficient performance. But they will be phased out soon and you will be spending on older hardware.

Uh huh. I mean how many DVD writers do you want to connect to your PC.

SB has 2 SATA3 ports that work fine and some boards have 4 SATA3 ports. So you can buy a SB if waiting is not possible.

You will be limited to 2/4 SATA ports. Thats it.

Actually the SATA2 ports are that bad either. They "only" slow down, no harm to data integrity.
Also it may take 2-3yrs for the change/speed diff to be noticable.
And the chances of this happening is 5%-15%.

Your choice.

Wait till 10 - 15th march at best. Or buy the sb motherboards now and replace them in the replacement program. But waiting is a more better option. You will also get newer and more power efficient hardware. Now how does that sound?

Tell me your opinions on this.

^^ I was comparing sandybridge cpu's with the older nehalems and thubans. Its more power efficient than them right?
