AMD 790GX mobos

Hi,

Do you have any idea when these motherboards will likely be available please? I'm itching to upgrade my HTPC and would prefer getting this rather than the 780G (unless huge price difference!)

Thanks in advance.

These boards are due in today, for tomorrow's Foxconn event in-store

Thanks for the reply Leepen,

Any rough idea on the cost please? Never used Foxconn mobos before.

Scan have the Foxconn A79DA-S up for £108.10 inc VAT (http://www.scan.co.uk/Product.aspx?WebProductId=866588).

Powerful integrated graphics in a gaming mobo, so very odd

(whoops ignore - didnt notice that model wasn't on the offer!)

Thanks for the pointer, Tetras.

A bit overkill for my HTPC needs (certainly overkill for my wallet ). I'll stick to the Gigabyte 780G mobo after all, it's almost 1/2 the price.
