3930k Supply?!?

[mwdavis77]

Any ideas on when vendors are going to get these again?

Thanks

Let me pull out my crystal ball.

Didn't they announce a new stepping? Might be taking a bit to get that out to the retail channels; I noticed the Egg stock was out a few weeks back while looking for other stuff there.

The word I have gotten on these is that they should be a twickle hitting the OLR (Online Retailers) next week or the week after. There is a worldwide shortage of these processors so it is going to take a while before this shortage has been addressed.

I got tired of waiting and found a guy on craigslist with 2 of them.. LOL

I'm (very) patiently waiting. I refresh NewEgg so many times I must've filled out that survey at least 100 times. I swear... I'm "just browsing."

Is the rest of the lineup suffering this shortage as well?

When i purchased my i3 2100 at frys where i have shopped for years the only intel chip they had available was the i3 2100 and when i asked about the 2500k and i7 2600k i was told by multiple people intel was suffering a shortage.

This was in like November so every few days i would call and it ended up coming into late December and still a intel dry spell and i gave up about 4 weeks ago.

I fear calling them up next week to check about their 2500k....

NCIX.com is saying Week of Feb 6th before they get any

Can anyone confirm the stepping change?

I've been refreshing tigerdirect, newegg, ncix nonstop for the past week.

 

[Diogenes2]

There is/will be a stepping change.

No way to confirm what the retailers are shipping, till they start shipping.

 

[mwdavis77]

Anybody have news on the supply of these chips?

Plenty of C2 in the good ol kingdom of the united:

^ I think newegg might personally ask me to stop refreshing their site...

 

[mwdavis77]

bah, damn you!

Wouldn't it be worth purchasing off a UK site if it is a guaranteed C2? Shipping / VAT couldn't run you too much more -- $100?

 

[IntelEnthusiast]

I got word that more will be hitting in WW07 (next week) and that while it is short of demand the over the next month that demand should be address and meet.

I would wait if i were you Rip off britain isnt worth it, plus if you ever had to RMA then intel would charge extra for buying it in another country.
