That may be True but people like me who have been long time AMD supporters are starting to feel like were in a corner and can't get out. Right now I can't wait any longer and I'm going for the E6850 the day it comes out.

Quads are nice but my primary concern with Q's are Heat and the recent batch comes in at about 130W. Other thing is that very few apps or games are using all cores right now.

If in the near future (meaning 2-6 months) AMD releases an affordable 65W Quad or if I see an Intel Q6600 with the G0 stepping I'm all in but in the meantime it's Pure Ghz/Price/Efficiency over cores right now for me and the E6850 is it.

Sorry AMD but I just can't wait anymore.

So let's see who is more believable here...the mobo guys who have repeatedly been correct thus far everytime they utter anything to do with delayed, buggy, and slow speed-bin K10...OR the chip manufacturer who has repeatedly denied every story effecting such on both R600 and K10?

I would bet on the motherboard manufacturers. 😉
