Something like that might happen
to make a Q be so low
but does anyone know when Intels going to change there socket size? cuz I would wait and just get the last cpus for the 775 socket or are they going to be using it for a while I hope :p
These things are getting hot again like the P4's. Time for Intel to pull out a new power management trick and go, again, to reduced fab size, and again, to lower Vcc. (ULV)
My plan for next year is to get a Q6600 and some huge piece of cooling and OC it to hell.
amd's going to be in a real price squeeze w/ intel's quads once barcelona releases. but then again, if barcelona kicks ass, it could be a moot point.
