Wouldn't this fit more into the Hot Deals category?

The price has obviously gone up already since the OP mentions £176, it's £187.94 on the link, TBH cannot see why anyone would want to buy this over a Q6600 thats cheaper, faster and has more L2 cache but for those who want this, that seems like a decent deal.
