The real question is when to upgrade my graphics, before or after Nehalem.


The one thing that can be said about this chip, is it is a culmanation of all current cpu technology , regardless of who or where it came from, Intel got it on the die first.
It's already about 9 months old.

I disagree with most folks. Intel will launch a few None Server Nehalems, maybe the Top two models for the desktop.

2.66GHz one and 2.83 is shown on their Roadmaps for Q4-08.
