As if he is going to truthfully answer that. Look's like OCUK got shafted with the 8400 stock. Other places have them in stock now. Well and truly brassed off with nobody having 8500's though.

You'll be very lucky to get hold of an 8500. Intel are focusing on getting the 8400 pouring into the UK first and the mass of the 8500 stock coming in mid Feb time.

So it seems stock will be scarce of at least the 8500 till then :(

On a lighter note.

I now have a consignment number and the Wolf is inbound (8400) :p

so what your saying is your going to be doing the opposite of trying to keep the wolf from the door.

*gets coat*
 
Never pre ordering anything ever again !!! Never get them on release :(
Walks of to check competators web sites for stock.
 
Hi guys just scanned over a few posts and got the impression that if an order hasn't been confirmed today for the 8500's then well have to wait for another batch?

My order is as follows:

Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 LGA775 'Wolfdale' 3.16GHz (1333FSB) - Retail
Corsair 2GB DDR2 XMS2 Dominator PC2-8500C5 TwinX (2x1GB)
BFG GeForce 8800 GTS OC 512MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail
Asus Maximus Formula Intel X38 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard
Western Digital Caviar SE16 500GB SATA-II 16MB Cache - OEM
Western Digital Raptor 150GB 10000RPM SATA 16MB Cache - OEM
Coolermaster Real Power 850w Modular Power Supply
Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatal1ty Professional Series 7.1 Sound Card - Retail
CoolerMaster Stacker 830 Evolution - Nvidia Special Edition (No PSU)

Id hate for this to delay the delivery for another week+ and its a bit of an anticlimax from having a pre-order that was accepted! Is it likely ill see this before that time or do i go elsewhere, I'm impatient and cant wait :(
 
Hi Retow
I placed the order for the CPU separately on Monday 7 PM last week after I found out they were on Pre'order, known that the stock would come in Mon, Tues , etc I have just had confirmation that mine has being sent out this evening ..
