In November, we will see the following things:

* Nvidia 8 Series (768MB, GDDR4)
* Intel Core 2 Quad (Native Quad-core based on Intel's Core 2 architecture)

Just thought I'd let you know.

Ooooh, Nvid 8!!! YEY! Wait, no, that means I'm 2 gens out of date .

Quad-core is coming from Intel on November 14th.

AMD's 4X4 (not native) is coming on November 15th.

Very close timings, should be interesting...

Also - AMD have decided not to go native quad-core until the third quarter of 2007. That, my friends, is a long long way away.

It will be the AMD Athlon FX-76, but before that, we will see the AMD Athlon FX-70, 72 and 74. Though they will be dual-core 4X4 capable parts.

It looks like Intel is on a winner, at the moment, but I think their FSB architecture will make them hit a brick wall at some point.

What happened to all the 60s?

The 8800GTS, 8800GTX and the QX6700 have all been released now.

Just so you guys know: 1 x 8800GTX > 2 x X1950XTX

Edit: And no sign of 4X4 .........

That's some pwnage graphics card. I want 2!

Take a look at the cards, they have more than 1 SLI connector. Inquirer, being the funny chaps they are said that Nvidia calls this "unknown secret technology" but Inquirer will just call it "more than 2 graphics cards". Sounds saucy.

Do remember, though, that an 8800GTX graphics card requires 2 x PCI-Express power connectors in order to work. If we could have 3 or 4 of these beasts, that'd be 8 power connectors just for the graphics cards! Crazy!

Erm, wow! I STILL WANT!

Athlon FX-74. Yummy
