2.8C Price cut

I think the price will be cheaper than it is now. What exactly are you asking.
 
Is it enough to make it worth a purchase when the Prescott 2.8 debuts at nearly the same price? Sorry I didn't make the previous post very clear.

Huh????:confused:

If you want a new P4 at that time, go with the prescott over 2.8c, the prices will be equal.

wont you need a new board for the first prescotts even ?

No one really knows yet. Some boards will probably work with them even though they don't *officially* support the FMB 1.5 spec

Nobody knows officially, but some experiences with prescott samples to some show that more then likely you will be able to use any 865/875 board which may just require a bios update at worst.

They discussing whether the difference between Prescott 2.8C and Northwood 2.8C is appreciable, along with price concerns, not if the current one is nice or not.
