but just saw this post,

they SAID it should be out later this week, no solid date however, should I wait and pick up the gene z instead?


thoughts?

You most certainly should..well, if your planning on building a small form factor pc...or if you just like the mATX in general then, yes! I mean, the WS REV is a great board..laced with the NF200 chip, among other great features..however, unless you plan on putting 3-4 gtx 570's or 580's on there..or you like the way it looks..or can get it cheap...then sure, get it now! Otherwise wait for the GENE-z.... allows for the use of the chips gpu, ssd caching, x-fi sound card integrated, efi bios in red (not a great selling point, but still!)... it's well worth the wait in my opinion...

I'm actually going to pick on up myself and toss it into a corsair 650d, and put some crossfire some 6970's... so much rage!
