Hi all,

Any chance of an ETA for the Intel Core i9 7920x?

A rather well known rival website has their ETA as September 17th, so wondered whether OCUK's would be similar?

Thanks in advance.

We could have tray here for tomorrow but as were seeing little demand, were simply waiting on retail part to be available which should mid around 17th.

Ah ok, thanks for the quick response!

Mark you do 3D mark and bench for that you have to run Intel.

Quite right - staying put for now, don't do much benching these days - doh.

Whilst you're here Gibbo, any ETA for the ASUS Rampage VI Extreme Motherboard?

Seemingly no one has a clue when it'll be out and I'm getting increasingly suspicious that ASUS has pushed the date back to align with the Intel 14-18 core variants release.

Thanks again.

No Asus have not done this for that reason at all.

What the point of this? Gaming or multitasking doesn't need more than 8 cores 16 threads these day!

Plenty of use cases.

My personal one being 3D Modelling and Rendering.

But you're correct that no game nor 'Mega-Tasking' requires HCC CPU's.

It's about time Intel brought something out better than an i7.

I totally might get an i9, it'll be perfect for rendering!

Crazy crazy expensive too no doubt

The performance is very very good also in this case.

Gibbo put these up too early for Intels liking and was asked to take them down. It's that simple really why they are no longer up.
