The storekeeper, Amarbir Dhillon is my pal. Expecting 920 at Rs. 13,500, 940 at 21,000, 965 at 46,000 (?)

That's apparently like $270 for the 920? That's cheaper than here in the US.

Earlier I'd buy it from Nehru Place, Delhi, but Amarbir gets me a discount. His stuff comes from Chennai (imports). So it's somewhat Nehru-place-ish rates. Those rates on the website aren't the rates he sells them at. Those are just a show.

He just went online. He's had a massive ground-store in Sector 10 for years now.

The price I could get to buy that CPU from retailers I know, not the prices they offer to customers.

^^ dude you should know better than that.

those tests are at CPU limited res.

At higher res, the difference would be only 1 fps. core i7 920 performs less than or equal to QX9770

look at this http://enthusiast.hardocp.com/articl...50aHVzaWFzdA==

If you're Canadian, NCIX.com has a few products up. All of the processors are in stock as well as the ASUS ROG board and the Intel board. I think there are other boards as well but I haven't really looked into it.

Yummeh!

What RAM are you planning on getting?

EDIT: Just looked at your system specifications.

Easy Rhino · Nov 17, 2008, 03:00 PM

wow these things are beasts. how is AMD going to respond?

InnocentCriminal · Nov 17, 2008, 03:02 PM

Well, a lot of people are presuming the Phenom II (45nm) will be AMD's answer to Nehalem, but I can't help but think they're not aiming to take on Nehalem with that architecture.
