OK Everybody just stop releasing things while I pick up my money! I threw it all at my monitor but apparently G-$ync isn't working properly.

I would just like to know, Will this be their new flagship product replacing the GTX Neutron and how much will the 1TB *960GB*model be ?
 
Had a Neutron GTX, loved it, held its own even against my later purchase of a 840 Pro, still have the drive in my lappy!

Think it only ever had the original firmware release? Which I thought said a lot....(good).

Been a while since they released something as their flagship product (as Dice mentions), so look forward to these, wonder how they'll compare against the 850 Pro's?
 
They've already been reviewed weeks ago, by most accounts there is nothing astonishing about them (aside the looks!) but they were mentioned at the side of 850 Pro's, however they are due a firmware change before launch so they may get reviewed again. As they stand they are on par with a Force GT but can't compete with the earlier Neutrons. Everyone's opinion ultimately rests on pricing which is still unknown.

NCIX have listed Neutron XT's for pre-order on their website, the pricing is as follows in USD. I've added a few other Corsair drives to help those in the UK understand where they are coming in. It's likely that once the initial supply and pre-order has passed prices will settle down slightly but they are still coming in almost perfectly between Neutron GTX's and Force LX's which seems appropriate to their relative performance.

Corsair Force LX 256GB - $137.77
Corsair Neutron XT 240GB - $176.98
Corsair Neutron GTX 240GB - $231.98
Corsair Force LX 512GB - $260.28
Corsair Neutron XT 480GB - $329.98
Corsair Neutron XT 960GB - $659.99

All price USD from ncixus.com

Well according to one of Corsairs videos last night their XT line is their highest performing SSD series yet so maybe they are ahead of the GTX and priced slightly lower due to getting better yields maybe ?

None of the reviews so far would concur with Corsair's statement. They did say a firmware change may come before release so that could change.
