Carlosan Posted November 15, 2014 Report Share Posted November 15, 2014 Source: PC PerspectiveSince we reviewed the Intel SSD DC P3700, many of you have been drooling over the idea of an 18-channel NVMe PCIe SSD, even more so given that the P3500 variant was to launch at a $1.50/GB target price. It appears we are getting closer to that release, as the P3500 has been appearing on some web sites in pre-order or out of stock status. ShopBLT lists the 400GB part at $629 ($1.57/GB), while Antares Pro has an out of stock listing at $611 ($1.53/GB). The other two capacities are available at a similar cost/GB. We were hoping to see an 800GB variant, but it appears Intel has stuck to their initial plan. Here are the part numbers we’ve gathered, for your Googling pleasure: Half-height PCIe: 400GB: SSDPEDMX400G401 1.2TB: SSDPEDMX012T401 2TB: SSDPEDMX020T401 2.5” SFF-8639 (*not SATA*): 400GB: SSDPE2MX400G401 1.2TB: SSDPE2MX012T401 2TB: SSDPE2MX020T401 We did spot a date of December 12th in an Amazon listing, but I wouldn't count that as a solid date, as many of the listings there had errors (like 10 packs for the price of one). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advanced Member L'Ancien Regime Posted November 17, 2014 Advanced Member Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) and where are supposed to put these if you have 3 980's in your computer? Well it's going to hold 128 gigs of DDR4 RAM and it's got 7 PCIE slots and an internal bus of 350gigs per second... for $600 Or there's this i7 version the Asus X99 i7 workstation board and it holds 4 GPU cards and has space for 3 other cards.

Advanced Member Aleksey Posted November 17, 2014 Advanced Member Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 well seeing as both the 980 and 970 take up 2 pci slots... im not sure how its gonna fit.. i mean if you have space for 4 gpu cars, you're probably gonna pack it with gpu cards... It looks like someone didn't do their thinking... maybe next round they'll start making long motherboards and spacing out the pci slots..
