According to sources, the new processor went into mass production exactly as planned and next week we should see 45nm Core 2 Quad Q9300, Q9450 and Q9550 in retail stores already. The mass production processors will be based solely on C1 stepping, which doesn’t have any changes to its thermal, electrical or mechanical specifications compared with the previous C0 processor stepping that is used widely in dual-core Wolfdale processors these days.


quads next week!

In other news, the 9800GTX is rumored to be released on March 25th and the 9800GT on April 3rd.
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star.

hmm...looks like i might have to reconsider my E8400 when i finally buy at the end of this month...though you guys might not have those new chips nor the new cards that early.

So far all the gaming benchmarks I've seen say go with the c2d's or stick with the q6600 if you want maximum OC.
