    It is April 23d - where is Ivy Bridge?

    When you do expect online stores like newegg.com to start selling Ivy Bridge? Or other online stores?

    As soon as the NDA expires. Give your local Microcenter a call.

    Closest one is 5-6 hours away, so its not an option. I figured online stores would have it as soon as any Microcenter and cheaper. When does NDA expire?

    The Ivy Bridge on-die GPU is still slower than the AMD A8. Figured it would be faster.

    Yeah but the HD Intel graphics can boost performance of a dedicated GFX card in games (Lucid Virtue MVP) and the QuickSync is awesome for movie transcoding. I don't AMD has such a feature.

    The AMD A8 can boost graphics with a dedicated GFX card as well. I'm building such a system right now. You must have forgot that, you posted (negatively as usual) in that thread.

    I said "I don't think AMD supports such a feature" and actually it was you who posted "negatively" in this thread.
