Does anyone know when these Z77 boards are going to hit the market.
Are they be able to run the sandy bridge cpus or they are specifically meant for the Ivy bridge cpus.

Any information on price factor / performance?

Official release on April 8. Expect some of them to be here within 15 days. Although same can't be said on Asus motherboards after considering the extended ate in bringing the Z68 motherboards.

Ivy bridge nothing but a die shrink of sandy bridge so it is basically sandy bridge (LGA 1155) .. so any LGA 1155 cpu will run in Z77 mobo and any LGA 1155 mobo ( H67 , Z68 etc) can run Ivy bridge cpu but this mobos (H67, Z68 etc) might need a bios update.

Though there are not much differences between Z68 & Z77 mobos, i still think u should go for the latest Z77 mobos.

N i don't find much differences in prices of both motherboards.

Can you tell me which shop he got quote from? Reason I ask is because I'll be going to Bangalore after 2 weeks so maybe I can get it from there. Also how much is the tax? :)
