Providing the CPUs come in stock on the Monday, then you should get your stuff on tuesday

Tuesday if the CPUs are in stock monday, so fingers crossed!

What happened to the 7th August rumours?

Despite pulling in the official launch date for Core 2 processor benchmarks, shipment dates for the CPUs haven't changed. According to Intel:

Intel Core 2 Extreme processor based systems and boxed product are expected to be available on the day of launch, 27 July. Intel Core 2 Duo processor based systems and boxed product are expected to be available from 7 August. Each OEM has their own product introduction / transition cycles based upon their target market segment and current product offerings. We expect some to offer product in August with more introductions extending through September. Check with the OEMs of your choice to get their specific message on system availability.

From what Intel is telling us, you shouldn't be able to so much as purchase Core 2 processors until after the first week in August, although you'll be able to get complete systems before then. At the same time, we're hearing that distributors already have some Core 2 parts in stock and will begin shipping very soon. While we tend to believe Intel's assessment of availability, we're hoping it's conservative.

I'm trying to ignore that as much as possible.

Let just hope it remains a rumour and not reality

We need Gibbo to reassure us!

Although he is keeping quiet about the rest of the Core 2 Duos.

True.

But then again, if it says "Arriving 24th July" that surely means what is says? Otherwise they would have left it as before "Arriving July/August" (it was something along the lines of that)

 

[killer_uk]

Good point, I'm just getting excited! I have everything ready - just need the CPU!
