Any info regarding these chips?

Price/Availability?

People over at XS found that these will perform better clock for clock with their equivalent Q9xxx series quads and at much lower volts. (500points CPU difference in 3dmark06)

So, an X3350 roughly is a Q9450; but anyone knows when/if these will be available?

I also wonder how/if these will work out on a DFI X48. Information is not available

PS: I found them much cheaper than the Q9450!

I might get a 3350 for 200quid myself, if this works out is essential a Q9450 100 quid cheaper!
