Those are fiscal year ends/Quarters, not product launch quarters. Two years ago Conroe for Desktop launched during the 3rd Quarter.
3rd Quarter equals July, August and September.Averill and Conroe to launch later this year
Intel will announce a state-of-the-art digital office platform code named Averill, and roll out the next generation of microprocessors for desktop computers, called Conroe, in the third quarter.

there yo go bringing intel into a amd thread again lol, if that was someone droping a dig at amd you would be crying like a girl.qft!
Damn :[
Wow. Looks like i will def be holding off upgrading till late next year. These chips are beasts!!
Yeah, when we watched quad core first arrive (even dual core), there was not much... but over the past year and half or so, I am quite surprised.
The only reason I noticed is because I wanted to specifically run some multiple single threaded (i.e. a multitasking environment) to see how things worked... I had a fairly difficult time finding single threaded apps that fit the bill.
Most impressive are a few of the game engines, UT3 and Lost Planet are two great examples of games using > 2 cores well.

Seems we made our greatest error when we named it at the start
for though we called it "Human Nature" - it was cancer of the heart
CPU: AMD X3 720BE@ 3,4Ghz
Cooler: Xigmatek S1283(Terrible mounting system for AM2/3)
Motherboard: Gigabyte 790FXT-UD5P(F4) RAM: 2x 2GB OCZ DDR3 1600Mhz Gold 8-8-8-24
GPU:HD5850 1GB
PSU: Seasonic M12D 750W Case: Coolermaster HAF932(aka Dusty)
Alright...
I have $1200 budget right now and I am on an again A64 X2 4200+ rig... what should I do?
Should I get the Q9450 or not AAAARRRGGGHHHH
I don't think I'll be able to build a PC after this summer....

Well , K10 went all around in getting slower than the competition.It's one thing to offer the best single thread performance and offer the best multithreaded performance ( which looks to be the case for Nehalem ) and perform only "good enough" like the K10.
Basically , K10 had poor single thread performance ( relative to the competition and even to the K8 if we go by absolute numbers ) , better scaling , but that didn't help in avoiding the final outcome.

Depends what you intend on doing with your rig, if you want to casually oc it and game on it, go for the penryn, you wont be disappointed. Wait till all our experts here, figure exactly how we re going to OC these things, and then get the 32nm version down the road, all the while enjoying your highly clocked penryn quad :P plus ddr2, seems like you might as well stick with a platform that can utilize it, if your budget strapped, as nehalem is not going to come cheap right out of the gate. And that x2 is definately on its last legs perfromance wise :P

Not true! Only multithreaded Lame was “Intel’s edition” 3.97a, real distribution wasn’t MThreaded ‘cos testing showed that MThreaded version produced lower quality of sound (everything is elaborated on LAME community forums)… iThunes is nowhere threaded!Photoshop is partially MThreaded… some filters, and some picture manipulation functions do use MThreading, but it’s not in big extent… unfortunately.Video encoding - almost all multithreaded, sony vegas multithreaded, Pinnacle Studio multithreaded
Video editing - paint.net (open) multithreaded, any adobe software multithreadedIn Lost Planet, only some levels are MThreaded (Cave), WiC can’t see beyond 2 cores, so as Crysis who’s struggling to use second core more effectively. UT3 has the best MT optimization and will use a mush cores you can throw, but scaling beyond three cores is dropping rapidly. Not to mention 3DMArk who’s only using singlethread for graphic test!Games: Any recently released game, UT3 multithreaded, Crysis multithreaded, Lost Planet multithreaded, World in Conflect multithreaded.who cares about superpi?Though not all SW has become multithreaded... superPi is still single threaded![]()

I don't get all the negativity from the usual well known AMD sympathizers. This last while are ears have been sore listing to tales of how phenoms great scaling and multi threaded performance are what matters in the real world as whats the point in having a quad and worrying about single threaded performance? You all just look silly now. Nehalem will have amazing single threaded performance and better scaling than k10, What is really not to like? Also because the tests are being run on early crippled hardware, these scores will only get better, No?
10x for the benches Anand!
Nehalem's performance is good, but it should be better with the retail boards and final silicon.
As for the multi-threaded software, there are a lot of dual-threaded applications, but there are no four threads optimized desktop apps. Having 8 threads and a incredible bandwidth, Nehalem will shine in multi socket environment. IMO, a dual socket Nehalem will compete against a quad socket Barcelona server.

Wow, these benchmarks looks great. Can't wait. Dual cpu's with 16 threads would help 3dmark scores

Still making up fud?
Its no different from 65 vs 45nm etc. You seem desperate to makeup alot of crap. Its a rough time lately?
Intel wants to sell a new highend part. And it would be a Nehalem. Did Q9300 also instantly make Q6600 worthless? Oe QX6850 vs QX9650? In the end of the day Intel just cash in a new 1000$
