Ivy Bridge-Z68

[jimmi_payge]

Ok gang, so I'm building my first PC. I was gonna wait to get the CPU until Ivy Bridge comes out, and I know that the Z68 chipset is supposed to be compatible with this generation of processor.
-Should I wait to get the mobo until after Ivy Bridge drops or can I snag one now?
-Also, I've been reading that really all that's gonna need to be done with the mobo is a bios upgrade, but is there a mobo manufacturer that's offering better support?

Hi there Jimmi_Payge,

Well, all questions that u have, u also have the correct answers : ))
Z68 and P67 is OK for the Ivy Bridge.

If u can wait, than u may get some price break on the mobos. Maybe $20 or so...

ASUS is what I use and it already has latest BIOS that support for the Ivy Bridge.
