Next time read before you post

You saw the exciting "Preview" of the new dual core king - the E8700 from Intel. Now you see the angry, sad, disappointed face staring back at you through your glossy monitor after seeing that you just got April Fooled. Ashton Kutcher would be proud.

YUP! Grabbing my "spanker" now!

i looked and looked for an E8700, spoke to people inside In..ahh, places that should know and NO ONE had heard of one.
Now Intel did make a 10.5 multi dualcore with specs of 3500/6mb/1333 E0 stepping BUT it was for the dual socket 771 boards and it was called a X5270.
I know, I have 4 of them sitting 2ft from me..Never tried them though..

What happend to the ''I got a e8700 by mistake'' thread?

The whole thing seemed too sketchy to be true...

**Musho** · 11-26-2009, 08:40 AM

I'm wondering the same thing. Could you check if they've moved the thread to the selling and trading forum section? I can't access it yet (soon, though!), but it might be possible, since it basicly turned into a selling thread.

**RPGWiZaRD** · 11-26-2009, 08:57 AM

But it was still wrong to remove the thread as it wasn't the author of the thread that was offering to sell as such, only very keen forum users, hence it shouldn't have been removed and cmon, such important case is just being turned away like that, I'd classify that act as being rude to the person that's sharing some very valuable and interesting information. So -1 to the mod for this one.

I hope this won't turn away the owner of this chip to post more info.

Is it in the selling and trading section of the forum? I still can't access it, eventhough you should be able to do so if you are at or over 100 posts, right?

He lost his job, family, friends and he is now living as a castaway in an uninhabited island.
