Anyone know when ATI is planning on releasing any of these? Would be nice to have a couple x850s on the same board....

Dont know the answer to that question. But what dissappoints me is that you're forced to go with an ATI chipset. I used one for a game server paired with an Athlon64 3200+, 2x512 DDR400 ram, and was a little dissappointed. A lot of odd little quirks... For example, doing something simple as opening task manager would cause the whole PC to become unresponsive for several seconds (up to 30 seconds at times) before task manager finally loaded. Hard drive access was also very slow, and I was using a prety fast 250GB SATA drive. Another odd thing was during a cold boot, sometimes it wouldn't even recognice the HDD.

Its possible that this has absolutly nothing to do with the actual chipset and I may have gotten a bad board, but the lack of options still bothers me.
