Nehalem-EP......BLOOMFIELD

[bowman]

Excellent! I thoguht it was only the 3.2 bloomfields that would be avail q4

Seems the FUD did its job.. FudZilla and other sites have been reporting this 'only extreme edition this year' and 'LGA 1366 will only be extreme edition, and only LGA 1366 will overclock' so many times now that I guess people are starting to believe it. Maybe LGA1160 won't overclock, but LGA1366 will definitely be affordable by any enthusiast in 2009, if not already this year.

Let's say it again, the roadmaps have been clear as crystal since April and confirmed several times recently. Three price brackets, the ones that Q9450, Q9550 and some QX processor are currently filling, will launch this year. It's also been said by some site (TweakTown I think it was, and yeah, I know.. TT..) that it might come 'earlier' than we expect in Q4 as opposed to December 31.
