Aigomorla, are you saying that this 6-core Gulfotwn is definitely not going to be called "Core i7 980X" and you are sure about it because you are an NDA holder?

Something you guys will never see unless your NDA holders.

It should be you're ("you are") not your (possessive). It's a whole different word that just sounds alike. That's why PlasmaBomb made a joke at it.

Anyway, not important. What's more important is, are you actually committing yourself to the fact that it will not be called i7 980X?

No, he just said we'd never see a request for sample form unless we signed an NDA, which is true.

Ah ok, thanks for clearing that up.

I call it overpriced; no cares other than pro OCers & sponsored people.

Why is Intel calling this an i7 as well? I think an increase in physical cores warrants an updated name, this is just confusing for consumers. Intel needs serious work on their nomenclature.

I agree. All these numbers are giving me a headache. Maybe call it i6 for 6 cores? And when they come out with the 8 cores (and we know they will eventually) call it i8? Keep the damn names simple. I'm probably asking for too much though. Heh heh
