Is it illegal...

jgv115 · 08-21-09, 04:49 PM

If someone posts pictures of a P55 mobo and a new LGA1156 CPU before the release date. Is it illegal?

jediman · 08-21-09, 04:51 PM

i would guess not. if you signed a non disclosure agreement you could be sued though

jgv115 · 08-21-09, 05:57 PM

mm.. If it is illegal if you signed a NDA. Then why do sites like Tom's Hardware, Anandtech sign NDA's?

Bobnova · 08-21-09, 06:08 PM

Because if they don't, intel won't send them the chips before the release date.

jgv115 · 08-21-09, 08:37 PM

Alright thank, I won't post my pictures just in case xD

Bobnova · 08-21-09, 08:56 PM

If you bought 'em legally i can't see you having problems. That said, i'm an auto mechanic, not a lawyer.

arent they for sale across the pond already?

They are already on the shelfs in AU I believe, so posting them couldn't do any harm.

jgv115 · 08-22-09, 07:25 AM

could I have the first i5 750 on this forum?

i've tried OCing a bit and got from 2.67 to 3.2 with lowered vcore. I haven't spent a long time doing it. After OCing my Super PI 1M scores went from 13 to 11.

can't wait till tomorrow. Gonna get this beaut to 10ghz!! :P

Certainly the first who is allowed to talk about it.

EarthDog · 08-22-09, 09:26 AM

If you bought them and didnt sign an NDA, then post em. There are pictures all over the place already.

MongGrel · 08-22-09, 04:27 PM

heh sorry J/K

*edit* you said I5 before, you kinda ruined the reason I put this on here hehe :P

jgv115 · 08-22-09, 06:46 PM

The P55 new southbridge "PCH" is really odd..

I get 3 drives together in RAID 0. I get 50mbps max on HDtune

On my ICH6R I get around 110mbps with 2 drives.

I've seen pictures all over already, I'm pretty positive you are safe to post!
