I'm seeing the same things dude. Everyone that's going to be a c2d....GOOOOOOO, before newegg releases their mistake. (doesn't really matter though does it?)
EDIT: Actually....it only looks like the q6600 has dropped...interesting. |

Reasons are because the egg wants to get rid of them cause they HAVE TO sell them for less in a few days. They are clever.

Don't jump on it yet. I bought my 6000+ a couple days before the AMD price cuts, because I saw it went down to $195, and I wasn't aware of the price cut announcement. The day of the official price cut, it went down another $25.

you should try nicx.com for this one I live in Canada and they have a good deal on it $290 Canadian, so about 280usd... this is ontheir weekly sales list after the week is over (just startedd tonight) than it wil go to its default/new standard price I believe.
Happy shopping, this week nicx has some killer deal for Canada and prob in thier USA site aswell.

Only some boards can manage to get a q6600 over 3.3ghz the average is around 3.0ghz. Unless you have a board that is designed to overclock a quad core most support a quad core but are only designed to overclock a dual core to higher frontside bus speeds. The q6700 will hit 3.7ghz in my board but thats beacuse it has a higher mulitplier and doesn't need a 400+ fsb. My board a TR 680 is optimized to oc the dual core and support a quad core. The boards that support high fronside buses on dual core chips might not support high frontside buses on quad cores. The boards that do support extreme quad core speeds and FSB are slightly phisically different. The version that would go way over 400 fsb from Evga is the A1 680 version of my board, and since my board was the original 680 nivida design, as are many Asus, DFI etc... they are going to have mixed results with a quad. The two boards, I used as an example, to the naked eye look exactly the same. Evga realized this problem and re issued A1 boards then released the orginal A1/ AR board as optimized for overclocking a dual core calling them a TR , but many companies didn't they simply write in the tech specs that the board supports a quad core but don't tell you it doesn't overclock aswell as a dual core chip would in the same board. People are going to be pissed when they find this out. Last edited by trt740; Jul 21, 2007 at 11:52 AM. |

Older chipsets have problems OCing quads but Bearlake P35 is a whole another world.
No more FSB walls...

Over here, the price dropped to £127.99. Meaning we get it slightly cheaper.

Here is a e6750 209.00, e6550 189.00, e4550 152.99, e6850 299.00. I think these price will go down even more come monday. The great thing is my e6600 sold for more than this e6750 is at already.
