When new 45nm CPUs ???

[Cain]

Anyone know what day the new 45nm CPUs (non-Quad/Extreme) will get released ??

Specifically the new E8500 ???

No idea Cain. We'll probably have a better idea by the end of the month.

Cain, I posted a link to a pre-order for these on TankGuys.com in your other 'Build a PC' thread ...

The absolute possible earliest date is the 20th, so that is when they should be available for delivery from the Intel shipping locations, so expect a week delay til they arrive at retail shops who are high on th list (TankGuys was #1 from their Intel supplier).

Darth I'm still tring to decide. Im going to go with a x38...Just have not decided on which brand/model.....Ive normally gone with asus but seems like i always have ram issues with asus. Kinda waiting around to see if any good deal pop up on newegg. If you have any suggestions im all ears! I got a promo offer for 4 gigs of corsair xms2 ram for $112 What do you think about the xms ram? Some of the reviews didnt sound real good

This chip really looks amazing. The ability to easily do 4ghz + wow! Even though I just got E6750 a month ago I would really think about getting this chip once it drops to it's msrp.
