I don't blame you, I was going to hold off, then realized since I'm all mITX from here on out that I'd just build now. None of this stuff is going to be 65W TDP

I don't blame you, I was going to hold off, then realized since I'm all mITX from here on out that I'd just build now. None of this stuff is going to be 65W TDP (at least the 8-core or more parts) so the 1700 will continue to make a lot of sense for those moving to mini-ITX.
