Going to see if I can get it with the $50 off mobo combo. Awsome deal if so.

NOT 2600K, just 2600. Wont get the combo with mobo either.

This is actually the 2600, not the 2600K.

Yes someone please confirm if the $50 off combo works with this. Thanks for the heads up OP. I think I'm gonna bite on this.

It's the 2600. And as far as I know, the $50 discount does not apply to the 2600. Only the 2600k, and on occasion the 2500k.

Dealnews typo'd it I guess. Darn.

There's already a 4 page thread on SD

I actually prefer the 2600 over the 2600k because of the vt-d situation.

Anyone know a board I can combo this with to have vt-d as well?

Edit: did the coupon a few hours ago & haven't received anything via email yet. How long did it take for you guys to get something?

Most P67/Z68 do not, but I've read in multiple places that Intel DP67BG does. Not sure if they've got a Z68 board that does. Some third-party mobo manufacturers like Asus claim that P67 and Z68 cannot properly do VT-d, but some Xen users report the DP67BG and a few others as working. Some people have also mentioned ASRock as working..

Do you mean for a Microcenter combo or just in general?

In general, the P8B WS works great. Takes all 1155 CPUs and accepts both ECC and non-ECC.

You really got my hopes up OP. Edit the title of the thread if you can to reflect that this is the 2600, not the 2600K.

Didn't think we could edit thread titles here.. I think it takes a mod.

Also still a good deal for anyone not into OC.

I liked it this morning about 8 hours ago. Still haven't gotten a coupon yet.

I think you have to click the "Exclusive Deals" link on the FB page after you "like" them.

I edited the in page title, cant do the thread title though, requires a mod.

Hm, I can edit it if it's new (within 15 min I think). go to the forum view and double click your subject line.

Thanks. I was looking at that one but I'm hoping to find something with an equivalent featureset & price to an AMD970 chipset board (maybe $70-$140 MAX).
