Hi there
We've just added several Abit, Asus, Gigabyte motherboards to the site which are conroe ready. Pricing is a bit up in the air at the moment but CPU's are due in approx 3-4 weeks.
They are all 965's ahhhhh but i'm cahtting to him now about it and he's not happy now as he wanted the best in being 975.
Aprrantly ATI are sending him some
All the good/new ones are out of stock.
Nope they aint even in stock yet but will be this week
Hope the states have them by next week :/
exactly ... just a marking boing to get prepay in :slap:Quote:

I'm gonna hand him over to my Intel contact to try and get more for the uk
All we need now are the processors :D
I hate Intel because of this mobo problems...They wanted to make a caos so they will sell more conroe chips,everybody says they are searching for conroe mobos,all sites,all hardware mags,in this case Intel is very happy because they advert their products without paying any money!!!
Wait for 3-4 weeks,cant you wait guys?Everybody has got performance systems,game systems etc...
Intel Bad Axe rev 04 mobos are out in the uk right now £165 delivered
what are the chances of me speaking to the intel contact. :toast:Quote:

I want to see official uk pricing though.
Nowt Ibby as she's my ex g/f from when i was sweet 16 and doing my GCSE's, we've just stayed in touch from there on and am really good friends...oh and the odd metting up when were on ether sides of the world
Yes you can get them there but they aint rev 04's so you'll need to mod it at your own risk
the prices of the P5B are a freaking ripoff...is OCuk getting any special editions? dont think so...
Is that a YEs or a NO :stick:Quote:

Ibby it's a no, think i'm going to give you my ex g/f number thats Japanes goddes....oh wait swap ya Yonah rig for it!!!
The links all say preorder or sold out, they are not really in then....DOH.
Damn, looks like it's the Bad Axe for the time being.
@Pete; Scan say they ARE rev. 304. Read This
That Abit AB9 looks quite fun. If abit are back on course as they claim, might be time to get back into them. I still remember the NF7 days :)
Bah.Quote:

hmm now wouldnt we all want one of those....hang on a second...
Dude i'm not giving you her number or e-mail address. Why do you want it?
If you want a chip see the FS section. I'm no longer doing em.
A mate order his bord from scan on thursday came friday and was not rev 04 so it went back same day
tbh i think hes after your gf. kick him in the ovaries and nuke him from orbit ftw.
In my 2nd post .. did i as for her email address, or number ...?Quote:

You have never managed to get an ES chip as of yet.
On Extreme Prometia you bragged about ES cpus via your gf, but failed even to take a picture of one with your name next to it. So i fail to see how "your no longer doing em" .
So before you post another halfa$$ed smart comment, think twice. I am sure I could always dig up the necessary threads to remind you.
@qui, if you have nothing intresting or important to say, Please keep out of it.
Lotus position now guys and ommmmm....
Relax. Breathe deeply. When you get to my age, time passes too fast (heh, I don't have to wait as long as you then). Bickering ain't going to make things happen any quicker. Enjoy the nice weather, get rid of your computer tan. Go out, have a beer. Everything will come to pass in good time.
Ibby,
Wait till next week when my RMA camera arrives and i'll have pics of it all for you to swivle on.
I might be part of ep-uk but i don;t answer to you nor mav etc etc
If i wana show i will i don;t have to.
Oh and sometime there is soemthing of being a show off. Regardrless of how long you been here and there live with it mate. i'm here, i'm gonna get the best befor most due to whom i know.
If you need a contact at Intle they got an amazing website. Why do you need my Contact? You don't run a shop like Gibbo whom asked for my help. if you've gotten of your high horse i would of offere dit to you but sod ya. Suffer like 900+ muppets that hassled me 24/7 over Conore and mobos here, ep and ocuk
why are 975s better then the 965s? Whats the difference?
975 = native crossfire support
is that the only reason people are favoring 975? I've heard alot of people talking about 975 being better I just never asked. From the looks of the asus website the Asus P5B only supports up to 400mhz fsb..that true?Quote:

Someone on this forum has already done 410, and bios goes to 450, someone still tried to argue when shown a bios shot showing it went to 450 so they guy benched at 410 to prove his point. I'll just check if the exact same mobo we're both talking about.Quote:

Is that maybe dependent on BIOS revision?
:)
Heres hoping there`ll be better SLI support on Intel soon (hey..I think a few other folk have thought that too! :D)
Back to the original post... no..the UK doesnt have conroe boards yet, but pre-order *might* allow a select few to get theirs a bit faster...if they get a board from the first batch in.
You can get the Bad Axe in the UK. And OCUK looks as though they'll have their 965 boards in soon. The Asus A9B looks quite fun to me.
@pete; why do you need a camera? What is wrong with the print screen button just to show us CPU-Z etc? I know you have no obligation to, but we'd all love to see your results etc.
Scan has had the rev 304s for a while.
@ ibby,dont worry bro ,Pete is the biggest BS ive seen on these forums since God -knows-what.I think he's got some self esteem issues.
Intel and Asus FTW? Sounds like it,but i really dont like the heat pipe 'solution',these boards cook,but if they are the best mobo for the job,then i'll simply get a 3rd party cooling set up.
they have some "Conore " boards listed ...not more
in the land of the "SUN" :banana: :banana: :banana:
so there is no sense to open a new thread
in my humble european opinion
:stick: :slap:Quote:

Just more excuses

Why does everyone else want contacts intel. :stick: Come on figure it out .. 2+2Quote:

And what makes you say that. An extremely large assumption from some one who does not know whome i am.Quote:

What high horse, it was you who was saying that shes my ex gf and i dont want to give her contact details to you.Quote:
if you've gotten of your high horse i would of offere dit to you but sod ya.
All i wanted was a YES .. NO answer ... Didnt need to know she was your ex gf .
No one really hassled you... You were the one who went around talking all big and failed to show any results.Quote:

As for Mav me and the other guys and EP and XS. Your in no leauge of ours.
Before you call anyone a Muppet have alook at your self, and then talk to others.
As a friendly warning, I would advise you to watch your mouth and stop Humiliating your self infront of other members.
I do not apreciate your personal attacks and name calling, if you carry on, i will make sure your stay at XS is a short one.

Have you seen the coolaler review of the DFI infiity mobo?
@thebeast
Couldnt agree with you more.Quote:
ibby,dont worry bro ,Pete is the biggest BS ive seen on these forums since God -knows-what.I think he's got some self esteem issues.
Lets keep it all on topic now.
yeah, it looks pretty sweet. Nice high FSB, if that 600mhz screenshot is real.Quote:
Have you seen the coolaler review of the DFI infiity mobo?
Apart from the ATX 24 pin connector location that is...
Still, OCs sweet none the less :)
What one ya thinking of? I dont know much about Intel board compatability. One of the MSI boards?Quote:

Also, OCUK customer service is an abortion - the forums are a dictatorship where any negativity or attempt to get customer service are met with bans and censorship, etc.
I could go on but I don't think I need to.
Incidentally Pete - I don't know you from Adam but you banging on about people messaging you for Conroes... just what did you expect when you post in threads on here saying "Get a mobo i'll give you s CPU to play with" (this thread) and then get stressed when - God forbid - people actually PM you about it?
Then you PM people with this:
Firstly, as far as I know Intel don't sell ES chips to people - they give them chips to test. Also, you sent this PM back on the 23rd of May - saying "ES and retail" long before anyone else had a Step 5 chip, which no one actually even knows yet if that stepping will be retail... and yet you had retail chips in your possession?Quote:

Yep that is awsome 600mhz shot is good.Quote:

If they moved the atx and the 9pin to the top right of the board it would have been much better.
Actually any where would have been better then where it is located at moment.
Yes mate, the MSI one, that Coolaler first did the review one :toast:Quote:

as for petes issue, Lets just leave it guys.
ibby
Be mindful guys certain people are desperate to get to the classifieds section of this forum and will pull most stunts to get there ;)
Mav
Like spam? +1
I didnt even know there were classifieds here.
sniff sniff i wanna get into classifieds, not for conroe or other intel related stuff though.
What kind of "less feature" ? The P965 come ICH8 while 975X come with ICH7. Feature wise, the 965 have more potential.Quote:

Beside the Crossfire and maybe a better overclock (even if the 965 can go as high as 450mhz, all board might have a fsb wall anyway), I don't see any other advantage to the 975X.
this thread reminds me of the clown on ocuk, drazic, claiming to have all these processors but has yet to post any screenshots in the last 3 months lol
anyway back to the topic, does anyone know where i can get this intel rev 4 board from in the UK or any other? not the preorder malarky thanks.
.. dont make me buy this in the meantime lol
http://www.asrock.com.tw/product/775...DTV%20R2.0.htm
Scan and Lambdatek do rev304 badaxes ;)
the Asus P5B is pretty expensive i wonder if they wil come down in price much
neither have them in stock though
dabs does but not sure of the rev

I can't not post in here.
I think your all being a little unfair to Pete here, he has said some stupid stuff I agree but he's a sound bloke.
I know for a fact as I'm getting it theres an ES6700 Conroe on the way which should be here this week sometime as it's in the country. I think you all who are slagging him off need to get facts right, I've spoken to Pete on the phone and he can get them for people he wants to, i.e people who dont :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana:.
Lay off guys, and just wait, the results are coming :slapass:
Boardy
ah well my conroe arrived today and i picked up a cheap asrock to play with (board cost me £13 lol, dont ask! its working fine though :D)
just need to get a floppy drive, damn board wont recognise the sata drive
without the sata driver apparantly)
should be fun few hrs :D
I got ripped off...erm have you a Conroe Es that clocks amazingly........hell :banana::banana::banana::banana:ing no
The DFI could be this week i'm told
