... Great, more push pins.

Well the coolers got bigger again!

Is this a bad sign?

 

[Droogie]

Interesting...

 

[Gareth]

Unlikely, probably because of the larger socket.

you dont know that,for all we know AMD could be hiding something new up their sleeves.

those pics look intresting though

i wish Intel would do away with those stupid push on pins,theyre realy hard to unlock on some mobos,especialy if theres large capacitors right next to one of the clips on the mobo.

They better put their socks on... So they can get 'em blow off!

yeah they coolers are bigger because theyve moved to a better socket. LGA775 is dead. The i7 will use Socket B (LGA1336), which is built to be more solid to support more heat and better coolers.

The stock heatsink looks like an aftermarket cooler. Thats cool... literally LOL!! Now who wants to donate money to the "Buy Ethan a Core i7 Fund"? I know Danny wants to.

The most I'd give you guys is this;

Did you get the joke?

 

[Ethan3.14159]

Cool stuff anyone here anything recently about a release date?

 

[jdbennet]

second half of 2009, probably in perperation for windows 7

 

[Shane]

i suppose were need to start saving now to afford one of those,and Windows 7

 

[jdbennet]

methinks MS will make it cheaper

Windows vista didnt do so well, and 7 is set to basically fix what people didnt like with vista, so i think theyll cut the price to move people to a system which they like, in order to prevent gains by OSX/Linux/XP

You don't get it, these are 1337 i7 push pins.
