    Conroe lunch date looks set for August/September!!!

    This from Bit-Tech

    It would seem from the talk that the chips will "probably" be realised to OEM channels around July and then onto the open market a month or two later....

    …damn.

    I really think it's going to be hard to get one of these chips at the beginning. So many people are just waiting for them that there is going to be a run on them with jacked up prices. I will probably get a 965 board with a 920 or something and then around xmas get one.

    this is pure speculation.

    Official date is July 23.. that's all.. Now will you be able to find one at your local shop by this date ? this is unknown... But you will be able to get one on July 23.

    I said this more than a week ago....oh no, FCG has no idea what he's talking about, we know better than him. Conroe and Conroe XE will be out on July 23 and the XE will be only $999. Yeah, sorry. Not ready for release yet.

    Anyway, on July 23, the Pentium D 805 should be $93. If Core 2 Duo is too hard to find, it can be a solution to wait a bit.

    I already bought few part for my Core 2 setup, so I'm really waiting for it

    Waste is of course, completely subjective.

    The Bit-Tech article is mostly conjecture. Notice the title of the article says "may not launch" as opposed to "will not launch" until September. We shall see.
