Q9550

[robamb2002]

I've noticed on other resellers sites that they state the Intel® Q9550 2.83GHz QUAD Core™ Penryn CPU - 12M L2 Cache 1333MHz FSB are now available. Any update as to when we can see these puppies start shipping through XoticPC?

They should be available really soon. We are waiting on Sager/Clevo to finalize a new bios that will eliminate the open issues with these processors.

These other companies that are selling them are providing them with the known bugs with these processors You can be assured Sager does not release any item until it runs flawless and without a single problem.

I'm about to send in my 9260 for the 8800 swap-out. Are you able to speculate whether I might be able to get this installed within the next few weeks while my machine is in?

*Bump*

My machine is due to arrive to you guys tomorrow, am wondering if there's any news on this processor? I anticipate my lappy will be there for at least a week, you think I have a chance of getting installed while it's in?

Unfortunately the processor is not yet available

[canucklehead]

Even within the next couple weeks, definately not on the block?

I am actually waiting on this too. PCMW had a really great sale this last weekend and we ordered one machine from them with a Q9550/SLi/4GBRam, cost about USD500 below the current price. I have to order another one and would like to go with XoticPC because this will be my personal machine for work, XoticPC is by far the best reseller and I'd really like to go with them for the second machine.

Sager is really messing this up for a lot of us by stretching things out - at least let us know when we are supposed to expect the hardware to be made available so that we can weigh our options and move accordingly. Sorry, I don't mean to flame but I am just saying what a lot of us are probably thinking...
