5th Jan Sandy Bridge Release date??

[Technex]

Hi guys,

I've been reading in a few places that the release date for the new Intel Sandy Bridge chips is on the 5th Jan, not the 9th which I see in quite a few places..

Is it just the UK that has to wait this extra time?

Cheers,

Laurence

wikipedia is showing the 5th as the release date... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandy_Bridge_(microarchitecture)#Desktop_Processors

Just hope that they'll be available as soon as possible, I want to buy cpu+board on day one.

Also, do you know any UK site that ships abroad besides overclokers? I'd like to have other options.

amazon.co.uk ships to europe - they should have all the SB stuff in stock

The motherboards are on Aria's website (p67 GIGABYTE and ASUS) boards
