E6600 available @ newegg...but

omg, it's out of stock already. That took about 3 minutes, I kid you not. WTF did they just get in 2 units or something? j

GHEY. Oh well, I'm still making up my mind anyway on where to get this thing.
 
That price is decent imo. It was one hundred bucks more expensive last week and the week before that; granted that was ridiculous pricing for the people that just had to have it.
 
I got mine yesterday afternoon, it was in-stock for about 5 minutes including the time it took me to order, if that. It has shipped and I have had the tracking number since last night :D.

The $316 price is *NOT* Intel's MSRP, it is the 1000-unit OEM tray price. This seems to be harder to stamp out than people saying we didn't land on the moon ever :eek: !
 
It seems to be instock again at newegg with the 369 price. My order seemed to go through...I hope it all works :)

True, but what you're implying isn't. End-user prices usually stabilize within 5-10% of the 1000 unit cost. AMD lists their price in bulk for the X2 AM2 3800+ at $152 and newegg has the retail CPU listed at $149-- UNDER that cost, with free shipping.

In a month you'll be able to buy a retail C2D 6600 for <$330. Or I'll eat my hat.
