    Its a little more than that. Haven't seen official specs but rumors say it will have PCIe-3.0 which is twice as fast as the current 2.0. That will be big down the road as new products come out with this new interface. Also some improvement of the internal graphics and new memory controller to support faster speed memory.

    Sorry Phone Man being a Tek-nobrain is this Gbs data rates you are referring to and something like the transfer rates for USB 2 & 3?

    Oh jeez seekermeister that is some serious difference in price mate down under they are a bit dearer even though the exchange rate is good (for us) but I suppose taking into shipping it equates out somewhat.
    Prices here are AUD$255 1090T & AUD$295 1100T still it is still a little strange because your US prices are miles apart aren't they - comparatively speaking.

    A bit OT but does this match the difference in mobos for these two?
    I'm not exactly certain of what you are asking, but if you are talking about how they compare performance-wise, then the wizard on this link should prove useful, comparing either these or other CPUs:

    Bench - CPU - AnandTech :: Your Source for Hardware Analysis and News

    If you are talking about price differences, then this article should be of interest, despite the fact that I'm sure that it is in USDs:

    Hello seekermeister having seen this what AMD processor are you using as the wait for Intel seems to be taking ages.
    What I have now is obsolete, but I have been playing with the idea of replacing it with this:

    Amazon.com: AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition Thuban 3.2 GHz 6x512 KB L2 Cache Socket AM3 125W Six-Core Processor - Retail HDT90ZFBGRBOX: Electronics

    However that was before reading about the Bulldozer. Yet, with the price tag that I expect that it will have, I doubt that I can afford it. I would like to have this one:

    Amazon.com: Phenom II X6 1100T Blk Ed AM3 3.3G 512KB 125W 3.7G Turbo 6MB Box: Electronics

    But since I will also have to upgrade the motherboard and RAM for either one, this is pushing the budget some.

    Not sure about your prices on mobo's. but it seems the CPU's run about $50.00 more there than in the US. I'm sure shipping isn't that much.

    Here is a link to information on the PCIe bus.

    PCI Express - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    and infor on the speeds.

    Intel Discloses Chip Glitch-pcie.png

    It is the interface for add on cards like a video or sound card. It has up to 16 serial data lanes and different cards use different amount of lanes. Most video cards use 16 lanes but on some motherboards if you use two video cards it will give each slot 8 lanes. As you can see in the pic the 3.0 version is double the speed of the present 2.0 version. This is not USB which is a different interface but since USB 3.0 is implemented on the motherboard with a special chip, that chip is tied to the PCIe bus and uses a 4 lane connection.

    Hope this helps.

    I've already been told by MicroCenter to expect my replacement board around mid-March....much earlier than initial projections.

    Good to know. Checked Newegg and they don't seem to have any 1155 boards for purchase again, yet.

    Ok essenbe I'll check as the shipping rates out here are horrendous and usually approach the cost of what one has ordered - say for a case for example.

    If Intel is just shipping the fixed chips now, it will still take some time for the board manufacturers to build them into mobos, test them, and then repackage for sale to the end user. You better believe the larger OEMs will get first shot as well.

    Yeah, I was curious if they had started taking orders again.
