I'm building a new system based on the upcoming desktop Palomino. I've tentatively decided to use an Asus A7M266. But I'm wondering if there's a new generation of M/B's optimized for the new CPU scheduled for release at about the same time. Any rumors or facts?

do a search in general hardware over at anandtech on nforce, we were discussing this today. seems msi has boards that hit distributors tomorrow with the nforce chipset. asus website says theirs are due out q3 so...looks like it's worth the wait. i was going to order an epox 8k7a but im going to wait now as these should be out in less than a month (*crosses fingers*) and reviews and reports soon after.
