Why release it in September when its not going to actually be available until October? Is that even technically considered a release?

@xizel1,

Yes, I'm sure Intel is very afraid of AMD. They know that AMD is just pretending to suck badly so that they can pounce on Intel once their guard is down.

How will the triple channel DDR3 memory thing be handled? Will we start seeing 3 packs of DDR3 1G and 2G (3G and 6G total)? It wouldn't make much sense to only get 3x .5G sticks.

I've got to be honest I feel both Intel and AMD, I have had a 3.8ghz Air cooled 6300 for over two years. Is it even worth my time to hope that this new chip stock 2.93 beats mine in gaming, etc? I am bored with my old stuff I want something exciting and new is this it?

The CPU and mobos will be released in September, but they won't be "IN CHANNEL" until early October. That just means it's going to be some weeks after release before it hits all the stores in quantity. If you're near one of the distributors, you probably will be able to get one in September.

time to sell some of the kids toys to get me some new toys... Nehalem looks promissing, 20-30% is a large gain. I was expecting something more like 8-11% with the initial processor release.
