Probably not as much here, we always get screwed over.
What's the big difference between the Q6600 and the Q6700? Is the Q6700 the Extreme Edition just renamed?
Otherwise, I don't see a useful purpose for it, especially with a 200 dollar price difference.
And tbh, I'll just wait until the true quads come out eventually. (Unless I've been lied to and those ARE true quads..)

Its only showing a different price on 2 of them?
E6850 here I come
once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.
Q6700 has 10X multi, Q6600 has 9X multiplier.Poseidon wrote:

Those are true quads lmao But with 2 CPU on a PCB.

Yeah but wouldn't a true quad be 4 CPUs?cyborg_ninja-117 wrote:

It is, 2 dual core CPUs = 1 Quad Core CPU.Poseidon wrote:

Naw, I think they're 2 dies stuck together. A PCB is bigger, like a Mobo or something - that's on a PCB.cyborg_ninja-117 wrote:

Christ those are nice prices. Why can't they slash the prices today? We all know when it's happening, so why the suspense?
And would it honestly be worth it to wait for these, or is it better to just get an E6600 and overclock it till it cries?

Yes it would. Those new chips Overclock like OMFG.Hurricane wrote:

When's penrym coming out?
Does this mean a price drop in P4s also? Just curious because I can only use those and i've been meaning to get this: http://www.starmicro.net/detail.aspx?ID=110
Any new chip makes an older chip cheaper, usually.
I may invest in the E6850 or Q6600 during summer! I'll be in America too.

Do you really care?
Does anyone really care?
Why the hell would anyone want to buy a P4? One of the most fundamentally flawed architectures ever - P4s are shit.
That is Penryn I think.David.Podedworny wrote:

Because I can't afford anything else except for some sort of Celeron and those are even worse so P4 it is until I get a job and even then it'll take for fucking ever to get a new comp.Bertster7 wrote:

What would be better for gaming - q6600 or 6850? I'm guessing th e6850 but why?
