cheap and under 200euro.

I guess the 45nm make them much cheaper to make and sell

Yes of course 45nm should probably make it a bit cheaper to produce but 173€ pre-launch for a CPU like this is amazingly low however you put it (in fact it's what I paid for this E6750 if I remember correctly). Too bad this site doesn't ship to other than Netherlands & Belgium, otherwise I might had placed an order right now. Hope other sites will follow the example. In US this deal would correspond something like a 220~$230 pricetag on sites such as newegg.

At least I know which CPU will be my next one now, Q9450 was the interesting one for me before but the price and the fact that 8x will cause mobo bottleneck probs when overclocking with a Penryn I'd rather just pick the cheap E8400 with 9x multi and aim for 4GHz+ (well max out the CPU rather than mobo) with barely losing any money selling my current CPU.
