New releases and price drops info

[s4_squalo]

Hey everyone, as you probably know (if you saw my other thread) that ive decided to wait on the new release and price cuts of a few parts of my future pc. I was wondering if anyone had information on the:

• Intel Core 2 Duo and Quad Core price cuts
• New AMD Quad core (FX and Barcelona)
• New DDR3 RAM and compatable Motherboards
• New nVidia G90 series

C2D - Will drop prices soon!

C2Q - New quads out soon!

DDR3 - As far as I know, motherboards with a capable 1333 (or maybe 1066) can support DDR3. It fits into a DDR2 socket.

G90 - Unsure.

G90 comes out in Q4 2007

Q6600 will almost drop to a price of E6600 in late July

AMD's new CPU's are suppose to outperform core 2 duo's but no one knows for sure.

Intel Price Drop
DDR3 RAM

As far as I know, Gigabyte GA-P35C-DS3R is the only MB running at both DDR2 or DDR3. Other P35/G35 MB will run either DDR2 or DDR3 RAM
