@Rick: Your processor is still faster than his...but with that DFI mobo, I think you need to learn how to overclock.

These are a budget processor. I hope they don't cost $140 though; I mean, a E6300 is around $200, so this should be in the sub-$100 range on newegg once it comes out.

Kramy, I agree with you on the prices....

Also, about me learning to overclock, I've done everything I could possibly think but I cant get it stable on prime95. I can get it to 2.8 highest but iut wont be stable.

I'm sure we'll expect to see some flyers for super cheap Dells with these chips in them.

Yea, but it wont have the same performance as the other conroes. I just had a thought. Most average computer people judge a computer by megaherdz(sp?) to determine speed, wouldnt that drive away consumers?

If there is a 1MB L2 version for around the $100 USD price point, I may well snap one up for a dedicated folding rig. Even a 512Kb L2 version would be much better than my current folding rig CPU though .

Sounds good to me!
