Anyone tried it? in this great country you always have to buy blind...
^ Yes! Running out of juice for mixes here too. Any news on when the octo-cores are coming out?
BTW, for those that can't afford epic 3496367572-core Intels there a couple of sixcore AMDs out now that are supposed to be decent and they cost $200-400
Couldn't hold back... just ordered it
Octo-cores are coming out Q1 2011. Word is they're gonna be available in march, like the 980x this year.
In those macs, Octocore was 2x quadcore2011? Wtf seriously? Mac pro already run with octo core (and I hear lot of rumor about a new line for may/june), why isn't already possible with pc?

We are talking about eight cores in one single die.
More info @ Xeon 7500 (first octa-core): http://www.ubergizmo.com/15/archives/2010/03/intel_xeon_7500_8-cores_and_3x_faster.html
In addition to the ownage above, it is perfectly possible to construct a octocore setup for a PC. Totally standard for many servers, set up exactly the same as the mac pros
