a lot of people, at least in germany, were buying Xeon CPUs as an alternative to the i7 CPUs and were using them with normal h97 socket boards.
now, if you want to use the new Xeon CPUs it seems like you need the special C232 or C236 boards.
you need boards that aren't avaible yet and will come with a lot of stuff most people won't need and there for will be more expensive.
AMD really has to step up their game with Zen.
