I had to cancel my order of the E6600It had more to do with motherboards than Processor. Now I'm truely shocked at high prices of the so called Deluxe motherboards but when Budget boards that don't ship with a USB bracket and cost $142. I'm through!
Man I have a hard time paying $248 for something with features that look like a $129 board at best and $142 for one that looks like it should cost $89. By having to spend money I didn't plan for an expensive board, not the RAM or Processor, that broke my budget! Even if I saved $100 and moved to the E6400 it still sucks.
So I'll keep my 2GB of RAM, let the case and Opticals collect dust and wait.
Keep in mind that Intel is not officially launching the CPUs for another 9 days. We are seeing price gouging and a bit of push from suppply/demand. Give it 60 days and the way should be clear to get some deals finally if not before. Obviously it will depend on just how many Conroe's we see on the shelves.
