I read about this here: http://www.fs2004.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=100341 "Core 2 Duo E6700 (2.66 GHz/4MB L2/1066MHz FSB) and E6600 (2.4 GHz/4MB L2/1066MHz FSB) is planned to cut from $530 and $316 to $316 and $224 respectively, a 40.3% and a 29.1% off." It looks like this is going to happen in January. I'd been planning to get the E6600. At the new price, would the E6700 be a better deal?

Hi David, AFAIK, those price cuts only cut in Q2/2007. My guess would be late Q2. Intel probably doesn't have many reasons to lower their prices in the next 3-4 months. Acc to the same Chinese source, there's a rumour we'll see DDR3 as of Q3/2007. Late Q3 that is... :-) Kind regards Jaap

Yep, those prices will only go into effect Q2 2007
