Anybody seen them in stock anywhere yet? Anandtech are claiming an early August release date now.

Nope nowhere at the moment though OcUK are getting X6800 in 1-3 days now (was 4-7 days yesterday i think). Earliest for the E6600 I've seen is 24th July.

OH NOESS

me wants one :mad:

OcUK's Conroe page now shows 6800 as "1-3 days", with the rest staying at "24th July". Not long now!

I'm after a 6600, but why does it seem that OcUK will be getting the 6800 before the others?

Can't wait! At the mo I have a 3.2Ghz P4 with an Nvidia MX4400 and onboard sound. I should think I'll be seeing an improvement

well 14th is tomorrow... dream on

At least there should be plenty of reviews to read over the weekend as once the NDA is lifted the review sites can start publishing.

Is that why theres not been reviews on the boards, Ive not seen any but people have brought them allready

yippee!

today i had my delivery from OCUK

got my:

mobo (bad axe - *does* have 8 sata ports. sweet! )
my g.skill ram (0606 s/n)
and the cooler - sonic tower - :eek:

i thought the XP-120 was big. how wrong could i be! this thing should be on a cars engine!

only thing missing now is my conroe. cant wait

**
side note - what is that coax out for on the mobo? does it have an onboard tv tuner or summat? :confused:

gam3r · 14 Jul 2006 at 18:18

Not long to go now lads.

RJC · 14 Jul 2006 at 19:06

silversurfer · 14 Jul 2006 at 19:13
