yeah I had the 6750 in my shopping cart on newegg at $199, when I hit checkout it jumped to $212, and has since jumped 2 more times. Same thing with zipzoomfly. I think I'll wait a week.
Haha, I just called Intel, they didn't know if the processor would work or not. You would think coming from the horses mouth it would be a yes or no answer. Oh well, I don't mind getting a new motherboard :-)
damn! I was hoping I wouldn't have to upgrade the MB.

Have you tried to load XP on it just for kicks? It works like a champ, and I did the install with the SATA fix. Pretty screaming Windows box so far. I plan on loading up After Effects and doing some Render speed tests on it against an E6600 at work.
Did you find your sony superdrive to be...
ah hell, I'll hold out for the $344 on blt, or cheaper elsewhere...only because I'm leaving town for 10 days so it's not like I'll be home to bask in the glory of my machines. :-)
