    I'll be getting that quad core, especially for Crysis :p

    Anyone want to buy a Core2Duo E6600 perchance?

    that Q6600 for £150 sure looks tempting... especially for those on the first gen C2Ds looking for a quick update...

    yeah im holding out for the x38 chipset tho and a greater chance of picking up a G0 stepping or Penryn if that comes out by then

    besides i doubt whether the current set of GPUS will run crysis at DX10 to acceptable levels so maybe hold out for the 9800 December right?

    we will see but what im basically saying is im not buying anything until i see some benchmarks tho for both crysis and Unreal 3

    Good luck AMD, you better come up with something really good.

    This is great! Bargain.

    BoomAM: It said 22nd. Most stores will reduce the price earlier, when the next stock comes in.

    Lets all hope that there are some silly people on ebay.....

    hahaha, of course there are silly people on ebay! What am I thinking! Now! The challenge is; can you sell your old one for more than your buying your new one!

    I don't know many others who also strictly use AMD, but I'm starting to get a bit nervous for them now. I've got a stack of nearly $20,000 for them right now, but no Phenom FX...

    some, and its pretty much the same as for the C2Ds

    they do put out more heat at the same clocks (expected) so better cooling is needed.
