Great Red Priest!
Do some benches please, and lets see if the retail chips offer similar performance to the initial reviews by Anandtech, Tech-Report etc which used Intel provided chips, rather than engineering samples..
address? :banana:
j/k ^_^ Grats, now I have my hopes up.
Already? Post some pics please!
Could you please post pics?
I have not seen C2D's packaging yet.

What is this store which sold the Conroe before NDA?
Congrats !!!
lucky you! :D
out of stock...

Nice toys

Pics and CPU-Z shot. If you can afford a X6800, surely you have a digicam, or at least a camera phone. If not, then please post a CPU-Z shot.
Must have been sold for above market price.
As FCG said, this store might be in huge trouble if Intel finds out about sales before official launch date
But sure, show those pics
They have the 6600's listed with a 2-3 week lead time
They claim to have the E6600s and 6700s in stock.
The X6800s, E6400s and E6300s are all out though.
pics please :)

Oh man I wish you had a P5W DH with 0401 bios because I'm holding my breath until I find out if the retail boxed C2Ds post on it ;).

they don't. 0502 and above should work...Quote:

Seriously, this isn't a troll post. I'm excited as much as anyone.
This is what I will be testing it on (soon):
Intel 975x Bad Axe rev 304
2 GB DDR2 800 memory
2 7800 GTs (I have my 7900 GTXs at home) and 2 ATI x1900XT crossfire
1 10000 rpm raptor 150 GB drive
1 Creative x-Fi Platinum
EDIT: Yes, I have the cracked drivers that were posted earlier when I asked for them - thanks guys for the help. Too bad we don't have 9x.xx drivers.
Hope you have a 776 socket to put it in ;)
i cant wait till like mid 2008 when these become as cheap as current intel chips... man oh man thats gonna be sweet.
Here's a pic of my X6800 which arrived a few minutes ago:)

vmsein where did you get it from?
I got mine from East Luna. They weren't kidding when they said 3 shipped out yesterday.
Thanks! :woot:
When you ordered Red did that site say 2-3 weeks delivery for that cpu?
Sweet looking box! :)

Wow, congrats. I felt bad, i didn't think anyone was going to get them till offical release.
redpriest, I'm sure you meant no harm. But it's better to start threads like this AFTER you've uploaded pics. There was a lot of wasted bandwidth here.
Can one of you lucky folks give us some relevant information like the sSpec which you will find on the IHS? Thanks in advance.
WOOWHOO!:clap: :clap: :clap:Quote:

ok i just got off the phone with these guys. they are not physically in their warehouse, they ship directly from intel. thats why it says 2-3 weeks shipping. but as long as its says that they are "in stock", that means that intel WILL have a cpu for you. i think he said that they have 105 left. i ordered mine.
very truly yours,

Looks nice. What kind of cooler does it come with?
I ordered mine on Sunday - they had 10 in stock then. I called FIRST THING on Monday morning to ensure that they had it and there were no problems with my order. It was painless.
Got the tracking number at 9 pm yesterday and received it this morning. I had a heart attack because FedEx said they delivered it, and it wasn't at my door. The knucklehead dropped it off at the wrong apartment, but I was able to find it (whew).
Installing it right now folks, and sorry for no pics yet - I'm not going to be able to upload digital camera pics until I get home from work (Yes, I'm setting this up *at work* hehehe), but I can post screenshots from my OC attempts and such.
Sierra, the sSpec on mine is SL9S5.
It comes with an aluminum circular heatsink with a copper core with a violet (!) fan attached - says Sanyo on it. I'm going to test it and see how far the retail cooler will go.
those 105 will go fast. get your orders in. $350 for a 6600, which is the slightly gouged going price, it looks like.
very truly yours,
politenessman

for this link http://www.costcentral.com/proddetai...7X6800/J48147/
it shows out of stock? do i have to call in?
its 350.42 which i think is around $30 above the intel quoted price of lots of 1000. i didnt get the 1 day shipping since it looks like i will be waiting a couple weeks (maybe) anyway. the fellow in sales told me the longest it would take would be 2 or 3 weeks.Quote:
