Seems like Q6700 will be the next Q6600 come late Q1 of this year... Price cuts i've got from another forum...

Why does the QX9775 have a 14W higher TDP than the 9770? I realize the 9775 is an LGA771 part for Skulltrail, but I thought server CPUs usually had the same, if not lower, TDPs as the desktop part?
It is nice. Except the 6700 seems to be the only significant
price cut on the agenda. But at least there's that.

Long live Kentsfield. Unless the Q9550 drops in price and hits 550FSB then I'll be stuck with Kentsfield for cascade benching. People paid through the nose for a 9x multiplier in the past, looks like it'll be the same for this generation.
It could be a lot nicer if this should happen right now...LOL.. Quads are getting cheaper... Q9450 duh!...:rolleyes:
E8600 w00t :D
A cool CPU given the speed, but the E8400 looks like its gonna be the big winner for performance/price.Quote:

Yeah, the E8400 is in a good position in terms of price, for oc'ers who wants 3Ghz as a decent starting point..
tough choice, e8400 or q6600.
eh? qx9775/qx9770, same specs, higher tdp and price? that must be an error.
I want q9650 for $200 in q4 08 or q1 09.
The Q6600 at 224 is pretty significant to ... what will this do to the Phenom 9500 and 9600 do you expect?Quote:

I've said it several times recently. The Intel vs. AMD fanboism is tiring,
you really can't lose either way you go. And what makes it a really
interesting time for enthusiasts is that in the face of historically high
global commodity prices, we're enjoying historically low PC commodity
pricing in virtually every area. Diversify! Straddle both markets! Hell I'm
putting together a new AMD AND a new Intel rig this year,
and lovin' it! :D

Anyone know what quarter the E8600 are due ? Q3, Q4 ?
Yes when is the E8600 and it's lovely 10 multi out? If its Q2 I might wait especially as I wish to use it with 780i chipset with its FSB "features" :rolleyes:

no Q9650 no E8600 (the most interesting cpus due to the higher multi) @ 1st half, who knows when @ 2nd half
wow this is definitely gonna be an exiting year :rolleyes:
more like boring.. thank you intel & amd
e8600? 3.3ghz reference? nice!!! might have to check one of those puppies out over my quad, since I rarely use even 2 of my cores.
i don't think the tdp's on that table are very accurate.Quote:

No. QX9770 is for LGA775 and QX9775 is for LGA771 (Server and Skulltrail).Quote:

my system just got nicked, i want an e8400 now dammit :p:
