    Anyone knows the current ETA on the above? On website it just says July. want to order one, but if I need to wait until late July, it’s be a shame.

    Thanks.

    See that the processor option shows:
    Intel® 10th Generation Comet Lake i9-10900K 10 Core - 16 Thread Processor, 3.7 GHz (Max Turbo Frequency 5.3 GHz), 20 MB Smart Cache, 125W +$425.00

    The i9-10900k is 10 Core 20 Thread. Is the “16 Thread” a typo?

    Definitely a typo. New listings occasionally have them. Good catch

    Thanks.

    hopefully I’ll be placing an order over the weekend. Have to talk to the team. If this is the beast we think it is, we’ll Test it, and transition most of our agency to these.
    ETA should be around July 15, right?

    ETA is still open, but our best guess given what Clevo tells us it will be more like late July/August timeframe, but with limited supply at first. I will be important to get your Pre-order in if you want one from the first shipment.

    Anyone know what's happening at HID these days? Their support is usually pretty good at replying to inquiries in 24 hours, but as of late, they're slowing down.

    COVID forcing a bunch of people to WFH I wonder...
