Is the Q9450 really in stock on the 10th?

Just this second spoke to Tom @ OcUK and he said they are getting 2500 on Monday 17th.

Quite a lot of stock considering the limited supplies that have been quoted recently.

EDIT: when you say 2500, is that for all three yorkfields, or just the Q9450?
 
What does ETA mean? ;)

"Euskadi Ta Akatasuna", or Eta (pronounced "eh-ta"). A paramilitary organisation based in northern Spain which uses terrorism to push for Basque independence. :D:D:D:D

In other news, another delay from OcUK :( Seriously though, people (incl. me) do sometimes feel cheated after knowing several other big competitors have an ETA later than OcUK...suddenly OcUK appeared with an earlier ETA...exactly how can that be possible. Every other site had similar ETA dates...it's like they all knew a big secret and OcUK didn't find out:o I do feel a bit upset, but at least I got my money back.:)
 
Where do you get that from? They don't buy them at the price they sell them at plus I guess they are on 30 day terms too.

the stock is still worth that much, if sold at the current inc vat price (really i should have used the no vat price) even if they are on 30 day terms, somebody's obviously happy bout there credit rating. hence no problems with cash flow.
 
Wonder how much cooler than a g0 one of these would run at 3.6ghz. For me 3.6 = almost 80c temps, at 1.45 volts =/ (lapped true, non lapped cpu)

I just hope they get enough stock to satisfy the preorders, id hate to have to wait even longer as this is the last componant im waiting for to go into my new machine. Its all built ready to fly and has been for a couple of weeks, im just itching to throw a processor into it. I was gutted when the release was delayed on monday but it was half expected to be honest and with all the uncertainty over the Q9450 release the Q6600 is looking very inviting right about now. But then i might aswell just wait a tad longer and see what happens, i'll give it another week of waiting i think.

Ive read that sometime in April could be a possibility for the Q9450....i hope not :(
 
I don't know where all these people are getting "release delayed" from.
Only OcUK seemed to think they would be available last Monday.
Either they knew something that the rest of the world didn't, or far more likely...
 
that's £646,225 worth of stock :eek: OCUK don't have any cash flow problems then..

definately not, ocuk are charging MILES more for these penryns than competitors, ocuk seem to be getting worse at prices over time now, dont think they realise they would sell more if they charged less, so same profit and yet they would get a larger market share which boost's the company's name and increases new customers.
