I Want a Q9550 E0 Stepping or Q9650 on sale!

[SystemViper]

Hi, i am looking for a Q9550 E0 Stepping, Anyone know where?

It has been confirmed by Intel that they have shipped some to their distribution Channel in late August so they should be showing up soon.

Also the Q9650 pops up sometimes on sale, that would be cool too!

thanks for any help!

microcenter has the E0's. they are in a smaller box just like all the other E0 chips. my local store had 8 of them on thursday. you can also order them online. they never got anything other than an E0 so it's a 100% chance.

thanks bro!

I'm thinking about just going cheap with an e8400 if you decide you want the Q9650 back, it's an amazing chip but a) my board is limiting the max FSB and b) it's way more than I need since I'm just folding now and not benching anymore

Nevermind..

All the Microcenter's in California that I called last week didn't have the E0 9550.

If anyone can find one for sale please post source with contact info.

i highly doubt it's a e0 q9550 though.

seems they are boxing the Q9550 c1's in the new smaller boxes just to throw us off the scent of the E0's...

But we got a lot of people looking, so I am sure we will be the first to know and post, hopefully...

i found some E0 but they will be like 350 before tax and shippin ^___~

 

[SystemViper]

ouch, that will come down soon

microcenter stock of the C1 went from 12 to 7 since they got it listed on the site finally. So they might order new batch soon.

 

[SystemViper]
