Apparently... Intel did it again.

Yes... the Q9450 processors also have a Xeon counterpart, and guess what? Again, identical specs, blah blah blah, you know the drill. Heck, it's even on 775 instead of 771 like the other good sheep. I'm telling you because I know some of you have been waiting a long time, and you may not stand a chance against the horde of people who have pre-ordered the Q9450 months ago. Okay... you ready for this? The processor is Xeon X3350. Look around. There are a lot of places that have it in stock. But be aware, people have started noticing as well. If you want to make a decision, now's the best time to start.

P.S.: And as usual, I volunteer as a guinea pig to test this Xeon processor... once again... against normal casual motherboards. Hmm... I wonder if they'll run?
