From what I'm reading on Sandy Bridge, it looks like both 1156 and 1366 are going to become obsolete in short order. We'll see, as theres a lot of roumers going around now.

Like I always, say, never believe the rumour until it's a press release.

^^ I wouldn't be shocked though; I expected LGA1156 to be cut off farily quickly, im just surprised that LGA1366 might also be going away. Its worth watching at this point, thats for sure.

Who knows?

Still a rumour.
