    Ok guys, how long do you think until we can buy a $200 Nehalem? I'm thinking of just jumping to a Q6600 and leaving it at that for 1-2 years....

    Isn't $200 a little ridiculous? Intel's RM shows 325 to 400 us dollars. For what folks will be getting, hell, that is a Budget processor. That puts it in the range of the very hot selling Q6600 and the cheaper than the 35 and 3800's Short memories? One VAR told me more realistic price is about the same as the Q9300's first shipping price of $339 (from their shop)

    For $200 one in this forum should expect more than Dual Channel memory controllers instead of tri-Channel IMC as well. Yes, I'd love to see a Tri-Ch $200 processor but I'd be surprised as hell to see.

    Yes Movieman, I laughed at the guy talking about Gimp RAM.
