I'm disappointed with prices, and max of 8.5X divider if I don't go qx for the quads.

Honestly, their is not 1 45nm process that I'll be able to get past 3.6Ghz in a reasonable price range. Now with 8.5 being $150 more then 8.0, there is no reason to leave a q6600, the q6600 is the winner for overclockers.

Unless these can do 500 fsb easily, but I highly doubt that.
