[VictorWang]

@.@

4G on Air........that's crazy.

[ORCBEAST]

sawn my firend set his conroe xe,easy 4G on air.

Conroe xe is still 1066, 2.93G,unlock multi

if amd can't fight back,intel won't release the FSB1333 xe 3.33G at this year

When can your friend show some benchies

INTEL Just release the damn 3.3Ghz Xe we are all waiting for it...

[freecableguy]

I can confirm what hicookie is saying...

And I hope all the non-believers now see I was giving it to them straight when I said that Conroe will do 4.0Ghz on air.

That XE is 2.93/1066 or 4GHz on air ?

[rozzyroz]

personally, i dont think intel should hold back anything. release the power and move on to bigger things as fast as they can.

if we are seeing 4ghz air oc's with the xe version, there is no reason to play it slow. dont give the competition an oppertunity to answer anything.

keep the prices lower and the performance higher

YES INTEL

Release all that Chakra u have building up Gay I know...
Go Red Fox all out !!! Naruto Style hehe.

[freecableguy]

both.

correct. both. hicookie's post is right on.

[Vric]

Well and from what i heard conroe itself will also be delayed

Don't make jokes like that again !

[Waus-mod]

Think again... no joke.. i hope its a joke.
If u think rather this way:

Conroe allready smashes everything, intel still wants to sell 6xx 8xx and 9xx cpu's, now everybody is waiting on conroe. they still want to sell them.

But if they stick to 6xx and 9xx, then people will get AMD, since they don'T hold up...

Intel have bought enough time with his Netburst.. Time to release something better asap (and Conroe is the answer to regain the market they lost). And since Intel want to make a new "architecture" every 2 years, they better not wait to long..

They have more money to do with releasing Conroe than waiting and selling a product that most of enthusiast user don't want. Their marketing is already done for Conroe, and there is a big hype already. There will be a shortage as soon as they release it (sadly)

Well, Intel should have thought of that before they developed their Monster Conroe, now shouldn't they've?

I dont think thats true. The change over to Core architecture is supposed to be incremental, so there will be plenty of 6xx 8xx 9xx still for sale through dell, hp, etc while conroe is out.

[ORCBEAST]

soon u will see it,5/june

i know someone has spread the es sample of xe.

HICOOKIE ur gona get NOCOOKIE For posting this so early lol

Now I just cant wait to see that 4Ghz on air and what it can do on phase.
I think im gona go cry on my pillow.
Plz get some Game Benchies ready till 5th.

5th July I dare you to post it now or are you hehe

If the retail product were locked this would be a very good thing, we get the exact same binned product with a higher multiplier = higher speed possible.

For those of us with ES plans, this wont make any difference.

[\Karting_freak]

@Fugger
but es doesnt have the multi up, does it?!

[Charles Wirth]

Not on regular ES chips, XE may be different.

sure... but retail ?

there are better ways to empty your stock... why do you think Intel announced 915 and 925? I don't know now if I will go for Conroe right at release or buy a very cheap Dual Core Presler. further Conroe-Steppings might be higher to clock and get cheaper. but well... if Conroe hits the market as hard as I believe Intel might increase prices as well (more demand, higher prices)

but: I still wonder why Intel sells the Conroes that cheap?! in times of shareholders value I thought Intel will have prices like AMD has got to get as much money as the can get. one reason might be that Intel wants to increase their market % at all costs.

I don't think Conroe will be delayed, but maybe they will only chip 'em in small dosages to increase sales on 8xx and 9xx (buy a Conroe rdy Mobo and a Presler and wait till Conroe will drop in price).

[n91htmare]

You're kidding me, right?!?!?!

They are going to RELEASE them on June 5th, or just show some off?

Probably lift the NDA on june 5th for XE

Simple, they want to put the brakes on the market share trends.

are you talking about Poncho's computer? He one he was showing on [H]? The reason why he only hit 2.9 was because he couldn't get the board to work at 1333 MHz FSB b/c of some safty precaution.

no, iwill ask my friend , could take some spy picture or not...lol,but last time his answer is "no"

BTW,conroe xe nda will delay,and 965+ich8 dealy too,according to someone's news from intel and aXXs,will dealy to july or later...

but, i have sawn some G965+ich8 es of gigabyte spread out!

[theteamaqua]

why wait for 965 if 975 rev 304 willl do the trick, plus MSI plaitnum V 2.0, and nforce 500 series coming up??

[JoeBar]

We'll just have to wait and see...
In my opinion they shouldn;t be out early in juky though.
