we'll see how the 2nd generation core i5/i7 performs on it.

below RM900 is impossible atm. U may have to wait for micro-atx boards some time alter.

they removed it, but better wait sometime after CES 2011 for official pricing.

H67 is meant for ppl who don't do serious overclocking and won't be running Dual GPU configuration such as CF, SLi, will be either run on integrated graphic or single GPU. Save ur $$$ for other stuffs, like better casing for better ventilation, more ram or a better soundcard.

P67 will be recommended for Enthusiast who wants to squeeze the most power out of their K processor and benchmarking, multi-gpu solution.

Yes, ur board chipset is part of the hardware bug issue. Chipset HM65, H67, P67 are the ones have defective SATA Hardware bug.

Why processor? Intel already put up the announcement the problem lies on the motherboard Chipset itself.

Depends on controller on the PCIe circuit. If its like the OCZ+ Raid ones it should be promising speed.

Seems like intel is worry about the replacement supply will not be sufficient and it won't make it in April.

not the processor bro, its the motherboard chipset issue.

Replacement are not available yet, u need to wait till April for its availability.

All in all, laptop will depends on how each manufacturer manages the Sata port.

Yes Any board with Intel 6 series chipset are affected. (I'm tired of explaining it repeatedly).
It will not be affected if u move ur HDD/Optical drives to Sata 3 ports while waiting for replacement from Intel around April.

Announcement from Asus

If u buy now, as long as its the HDD/Optical Drives sata3 port, it'll be safe for now.
If u have the patience, then wait for April.

socket and processor architecture. And highest end bulldozer performance is about core i5 2500k level.
