About LinkBacksI read somewhere that there's supposed to be a delay due to a bug in the cpu at least for the quad cores, and that we may not see them until feb/march. The dual cores should still be out on time though.

Anandtech previewed the QX9770 (3.2 Ghz/1600 FSB). At equal clockspeed, the FSB does very little.Originally Posted by shaithis
Thanks for the link......although 2 things to note from it:
1. No comparison with current Q6xxx CPUs
2. Complains about heat and shows a picture of a CPU with heatpaste seemingly applied using a trowel!

just seen this on custom pc
something else that might be worth waiting for
Rumour control: Intel to introduce P45 chipset in January 2008 | News | Custom PC
P45.. essentially P35 with 1600mhz FSB.
Problem is you have to jump in somewhere, i'm thinking early January so it it best to got a 45nm Quad Core and one of the P45 Mobos?
Just make sure to get some good ram cuz your going to be close to the 1:1 ratio of fsb:Ram speed of ddr800
Q9300 with 6mb of L2 cache, 2mb less than Q6600.
I'm really now sure wether to go now or wait till Jan, what do you guys think?
Well, you said 45nm (Q6xxx are 65nm). Which pretty much leaves only the QX9650. Anandtech also did a comparison of QX9650 and Q6xxx at the same clock. You'd miss the 1600FSB, but just add 1-2% for an estimate.1. No comparison with current Q6xxx CPUs

I have just seen a number of rumors that the non extreme Yorkfield CPUs will be delayed for a couple of months, till early march.
For details, google for intel Yorkfield delay
The reason is either because of problems with motherboard support, or because AMD have not produced anything completive recently.
We had a thread about it a few weeks ago (started by moi of course).
The reason then was indeed that AMD wern't competetive enough to warrant releasing them.
