The wait...

[robohobo]

Being relatively new to the Anandtech forums and taking my first look around throughout today ive come to notice that there are a lot of people here waiting for things to be released.

Unashamedly, im now one of them.

Im waiting for Gigabyte GA-K8NXP-9 to reach Australia.
It was expected Mid/Early December.

I am waiting for...

X800 XL
Dell 2005 FP (Just need another paycheck )
A good Nforce 4 Board

 

[Megatomic]

I'm waiting for:

dual cored A64 chips
appropriate nForce motherboard for the above, not rev. 1.0a either
WinXP x64 Gold (beta is ok but I like GOLD!)
x64 drivers for all my hardware
x64 versions of my favorite games

thanks for the advice.... i'd rather sell it locally. computers are hard to sell for a good price, add shipping and stuff and i won't get what i want out of the deal. currently i have someone who might buy it for 200 U.S., that'll take care of the processor i want. lol another 350 for a mobo and video card and i'll be set (yeah right).

Could you not just order it from a US website that ships internationally, such as outpost.com?
With the US dollar in such a poor state, this really is a cheap option right now.
I've done this a few times and I usually see the goods within a week (to England)

Still waiting for the 128bit CPU. Should be here in 5 years or so.

I'm VERY MUCH waiting for nForce4 boards to be released so I can start thinking about what I want (will also need to find a good PCI-E card that's an upgrade for me but still affordable).

you forgot "peace on earth" and "eternal life"

 

[Megatomic]

Heh, some of that stuff is not too far off. The latest WinXP x64 is actually pretty nice. The hardware stuff may be a while to come yet.

 

[Kenai]

nForce4 & SLI ............... so close I can smell it!

 

[Omizzle]

My nForce 4 mobo from buy.com to come. Anyone know when theyre expected?

 

[ryant]

The big question...

Ive heard timeframes from retailers and manufacturers saying anytime between "Late November and Mid January" ... which falls under the general, annoying descriptive term:

soon.

 

[Demo24]

been waiting over a year and a half for a new comp Now just in the final stages of waiting on a Giga-byte Ultra board I was hoping to beable to order this stuff around Christmas but looks more like January Also waiting on a anandtech review to totaly convince me of which board

 

[ryant]

if youre going nf4 and dont need SLI theres only one board of any significance -

Gigabyte K8NXP-9.

If you need reviews to be convinced:

Anandtech - http://www.anandtech.com/mb/showdoc.aspx?i=2273
HardcoreWare - http://www.hardcoreware.net/reviews/review-250-1.htm
PCStats - http://www.pcstats.com/articleview.cfm?articleID=1677

Endless others: http://www.google.com.au/searc...XP-9+Reviews&meta=

if you wana waste ya time. They all say pretty much the same thing.
Board = Rocks.

You mean, 2^64 worth of memory addressing space still isn't enough for you?

Current CPUs can already handle processing 128-bit chunks of "multimedia" data at once. (SSE2, AltiVec, PS2 and DC console's vector-processing units, etc.)
