I'm getting tired of waiting for Intel to release the low wattage version of the Q9550 because I just want to build my SFF box. Given that I want this box to have low power consumption and low heat output (will move it to a HTPC role eventually) I want the newer chip with 65W vs 95W.
Should I wait or just buy a Q9550, hope that I get a E0, and undervolt it? Anyone have any experience in doing this? I don't intend to overclock the chip as I think its fast enough stock for what I will be doing.
