Oh, I hope that isn't you... :p:
This thread is funny, and a perfect example of how the gaming tweens assume there is only one user profile for CPUs. This is a "better" value etc..
Gimme 12GB of buffered DDR3 and it's a deal :p:Quote:

what wrong with Non-ECC ? those ECC are for servers and has no benefits for gaming/apps, etcQuote:

so this 8700 is confirmed or not= :P
Why do people feel the need to go into a thread about dual core processors and make a statement about quads being "better"? I can't imagine seeing a thread about a new quad and posting in it about how dual core is able to hit way higher frequency and still crushes quad in 50% of the popular benchmarks. Is that just insecurity, or is it ignorance to the fact that some enthusiasts may own ten duals and ten quads and use certain chips for certain tasks? Why is there a need to make a statement about what is the "better" choice? That assumes all of the readers share the same perspective. It's ANNOYING!
NOT. :D Teh SKU exists, but it is unannouced...it may never reach retail.Quote:

And I hope it never will :D I will never have a luck with that one as I had with E8600. It is too much to hope.Quote:

I'm running fsb 2000 here with 8GBs on an x48 24/7, and this is not the highest stable clocked Q9650 around; I know shocking, considering the fact that much noise has not been made about this chip.Quote:

i'm done with C2D and C2Q processors, this time my money hopefully
goes to core i7 (D0).
