Any news on the Iris Pro 5200s, GT3e? I'd love to buy an ITX board with one today!

Or will these only hit laptops?
 
Only the BGA chips (not LGA) will feature the highest Iris Pro graphics. I think it is a real possibility that someone may make an ITX board with a low profile for use in all-in-ones. But it is not likely going to be cheap.
 
I may not be willing to wait on it anyhow. I need to build a Minecraft box for my boy and was hoping to use it, for the low power consumption.

May consider an AMD A10-5700 Trinity, however their Linux drives are not quite as good.
 
I would have went with AMD if their Linux drivers were better, the A10 has the necessary HP I needed.

But yeah, that pricing on Iris is a joke, too bad only on the i7s as well. I'm guessing more will come, but a dual core 5200 laptop would be nice at some point.
