Hey,
 
Was wondering what is the latest you heard about the release date wise for the Q9450 (and Q9350 / Q9550) ?
 
Personally I still hear end of March, and a few websites that traditionally add components to their inventories only when nearing release time have done so lately. No hard date though.
 
Otherwise, do you still favour the Q9450? I can't wait for it as I'm planning on a new rig with 790i, Q9450 & a little GTX9800 (supposedly coming 25th march).
 
Naturally we can expect quite a few shortages But hey, its not like we ain't used to it by now

The Xeon 3350 (same as the Q9450) is available now.
