TankGuys said:Sort of - one of my better suppliers is saying he *should* get our stuff in the first week of August. Whenever they get the chips in, I'm going to pay extra for one/two day shipping to we get them ASAP. I also ordered from a 5th distributor today to try and help... I'm doing everything I possibly can to get these out to you guys.
TankGuys said:I just got off the phone with one of my suppliers, and the good news is that I have enough 6300's coming in to cover all existing pre-orders, and they are on the way as we speak (No word on other models, yet).
The more interesting bit of news is that he BEGGED me not to ship them until after the 7th, because Intel is demanding that nobody ship until then apparently. Thus, I would not expect any retailers to ship any more prior to that, lest they face the wrath of Intel. This certainly explains everyone giving the 7th as an ETA.
I'm curious if there will be any fallout from the few that have been leaked out so far.
Should I just wait and hold my breath...this waiting is going to kill me...I dont have another intel proccesor to put in mobo...so i have to wait for conroe or get something else.
civictyper16 said:Why would intel actually say they would have enough conroes then this occurs WTF no ones true to there words anymore.
deeznuts said:They will have enough conroes. X6800 was released then a couple of weeks you will have the regular ones. You know why? They are trying to maximize sales of their XE6800 IMO. THere are those who will buy the XE6800 no matter what, and those who are on the fence but will by the X6800 just because they can't wait. It is those intel is trying to capture. Also that other stuff about the big box companies makes sense too.

That's why I will be sticking with my preorder I placed through them, even if it takes a couple days longer than if I ordered from Newegg.
Benton The Race said:Well I have a feeling that we will get our stuff the same time as anyone who ordered with newegg because no one can sell until August 7th anyways.
DellH4ter said:I think so too, but even if they are a few days behind, I'm not going to care. They've done a fine job so far, and I've already waited a month, so what's another week or whatever.
PC-HAngover said:The only thing I am not liking right now is that my preorder total is like $370 with 2 day shipping for the E6600.. I would probably be able to grab one at ZZF on the same day for a lot cheaper.
