I'm trying to find a Quad Conroe online, anyplace I can order one?
 
clubit.com had it last time I was there (2 days ago)
 
It's not a Conroe, it's a Kentsfield.
Conroe is the codename of the Core2 Duo core, Kentsfield is the codename of the Core2 Quad... Quad have a Q in their model number, eg Core2 QX6700.
Might make it easier for you to locate one.
 
Just order one from ClubIt, they have 6 Kentsfields left at $1299 a piece i just need to decide on the memory, I got my pair of 8800GTXs on order as well, im gonna burn thru some vacation time when all this shows up.

You mean the price the retailers pay for them if they buy them by the thousand? :rolleyes: are we really going to have to go through this BS again? We just did this a few months ago.
Yes, exactly at that price.

I recall something about 500-700 for the lower models, though I'm not 100% sure.

Thats not to bad, because it will be around AU600 to 800 dollars
We Aussies get ripped off badly here with our computer parts?
 
My intel rep said that there were only 3000 of these allotted to sell to north america this go around and most of those went to the dells and falcons for high end system sales. He is trying to reserve one for me but as of yet i still haven't gotten word if he will be able to. The theory about $999 for thousands is just not true in this case since there are only literally hundreds available for resale in box form for the time being for us americans. This according to him anyway so take it as you will...

IIRC the leaks suggested that the highest speed non "extreme" edition will be ~$850 @ 1k units.
