"June 20th" or will it actually be June 20th, only time will tell. Hopefully there isn't as much of a shortage on motherboards. I would actually like one of these.

hmm depend on price....... becouse now i have two xeons e5 2699 V4 22+22 - 88 cores HT on 2100 mhz uder heavy load avx for exemple. FOR 750 +750 usd from ebay es cpus + mobo supermicro and 64 gb 2133 mhz ddr4 ram cost me cca 2500 usd TOTAL .
so if TWO amd niples 128 HT cores maybe on 2500mhz on heavy load with avx will cost 2000usd with shipping and tax.... it will be better than intel .. but i think not will happen
naples will huge big cpu s and price will higher than intel .
its still so many EE 2699v4 on ebay if somebody want many cores fro some application

Comparing the eBay price to the new price is a little unfair. For enthusiasts it might be a alternative but big businesses usually goes to a dealer to get new stock, and this series of CPUs are meant for big businesses.

I think the owners of the site will find that language to be objectionable :p

Also used vs new parts, when did this comparison become valid all of a sudden in regards to VFM?

There should be 64 MB of L3 cache on the 32 core version. Not 32 MB as the article states.
