holy crap i'd get the 920 if its really that cheap.

lemonadesoda · Sep 15, 2008

They HAVE to do it that cheap otherwise (given that it isnt faster than a good Core 2), no one would take up s1366 but stick with s775. Look at the QPI bandwidth on the EE edition. They are choking the regular, or it is limited to 2 channel not 3 channel DDR3, dispite what the memory controller info says.

You can expect the 2.66GHz 920 to be around $315 when it's released. More than reasonable - especially to all those who haven't caved for a Q9450 yet :rolleyes:

As for the other two, I have no idea. I just hope I won't be paying over $1100 for the Extreme Edition

I think you are referring to me, poor me :eek:

zCexVe · Sep 15, 2008

Mmm,I love CPU wars..They get higher by performance,Lower by price

DrPepper · Sep 15, 2008

I just hope the boards come cheap, and the budget cpu (920) clocks nicely and is very cheap.

zCexVe · Sep 15, 2008

Well since Intel decided to bring the mem controller inside,It will be same as hard as AMD for Intel to OC now.Aint it?

freakshow · Sep 15, 2008

oh i cant wait.......... :toast:

Fastmix · Sep 15, 2008

Considering that if you want to take full advantage of the technology you are going to have to use triple channel memory, it's not going to be cheap, ddr3 is still expensive.

But that is what I am waiting for to upgrade, so will see what happens.

i7 920 - me want

same here

does anybody know when there going to be released? :laugh:

PVTCaboose1337 · Sep 15, 2008

That 920 is a winner for me. I want it now. Finally to replace my AGING single core.

Isn't $1,100-$1,200 what they normal launch them at?

erocker · Sep 15, 2008

I'm deffinitely waiting for reviews on finalized products. Being a lab-rat on a new chipset can be a - :nutkick:

ShadowFold · Sep 15, 2008

If they can OC and they show considerable gaming performance increase I might consider the 920 but right now I really dont see the need to upgrade my cpu.

DaMulta · Sep 15, 2008

I hate how they killed high speed ddr3

no more ddr3 2000

I bet the next step is 2 add the chipset on the cpu.

cdawall · Sep 15, 2008

everyone does understand this will limit intel oc's hugely right? so the 920 may look good buts its not going to oc for shit

your welcome

welcome to the 4ghz barrier of AMD

This meaning what? Referring to the vdimm vcore link? I don't buy it. The verdict is still out on oc'ing. Hopefully we'll get some full tests soon, even though I won't be getting this for some time........

Unless it comes with an unlocked multi.

It seems like that may have to be the case. From early reports qpi can't be taken above it's default 133 clock and remain stable. So, w/ a locked mulit, this would mean virtually no oc at all, and I don't think intel would be that dumb (although I guess I don't really know). Also, there seem to be other advantages of the extreme chip besides the multi this time, namely the faster bandwidth on the qpi. Also, turbo mode, in which one or more cores turn off to oc the others, would require some sort of multi changing I would think to derive higher clock speeds. So, this is going to be a little different methinks........

I think i will pass on Nehalem or Icore7 and go with Deneb, just for the fact that I'm an AMD kinda guy

I'm just waiting for triple channel ddr3 ram kits to come along,bollocks to buying 2 pairs and having 1 stick doing nothing.
