$189 i5 3570K, $249 i7 3770k!

If you're near a Micro Center then these prices are nothing new or special, but Fry's Electronics also carries them at this price now! Stock depends on your location, and likely won't be restocked at that price but right now you can get that same price for buying 3rd gen CPUs there.

Pretty tempting to upgrade my C2D with this... Ever since MC moved out of the AMC/Santa Clara location I've been hitting myself.

The 3570K is maintaining the same price on the Fry's website but the 3770K seems to have gone up to full retail again, check with your local store before treading out.

Sorry to divert this thread a bit, but can anyone comment on whether this HP prebuilt with 3770 cpu is a good deal?:

($550 + $10 shipping + tax after coupon code "newpc150")

Don't really need it, but saw it listed at Tech Bargains and seems like pretty good value for money, and am very tempted to buy one (especially since it has Windows 7, not Windows 8)
