    Intel to Launch X38 on September 9

    http://www.techpowerup.com/?37964#


    Although the initial plan was to introduce the new high-end X38 chipset at the end of September, Intel's new silicon chip is up to the task even earlier, and a new release date has actually been announced. AMD will launch Barcelona on September 10 and Intel is simply going to get the upper hand and launch the X38 on September 9. Motherboards powered by the X38 are expected to hit the stores early next month.

    Maybe now they can lift their NDA on the X38 mobos earlier and we can get a sneak peak...

    lord have mercy all the times they say they arent concerned about AMD posing any considerable threat, yet every move they make seems to aim at pounding AMD into the dust.

    they don't launch the platform, because barcelona is a threat to X38. barcelona shouldn't compete with X38 (barc..server, X38..desktop, workstation[?]). Intel just wants to take away some of the media's attention and hype before Barcelona's launch day (which is a GREAT marketing tactic).
