Ivy Bridge Release Date?

[SMOR3S]

I am hoping Ivy Bridge releases soon, cause currently the i7 2600K is $280 (They upped the price from $200 recently -_- fml) @ Micro Center, and if Ivy Bridge comes out soon, then Sandy Bridge might drop in price. I am planning to build an Intel rig to replace my current AMD setup for a few reasons.

1. Graphic Design
2. Rendering
3. Video Editing
4. Benchmarking
5. Overclocking
6. Pure Performance
7. Good CPU sustainability in game.

Current guess is the 29th for retail release, no official word though.

Ok thanks... It's hard to believe the SB CPU's went up $50-$100 @ Micro Center with Ivy Bridge right around the corner.

Well they more-so went back to their normal retail price. The $200 2600k was just a 2-3 day sale [or until OOS]

I wish I had the cash to get one then
