:p The low multiplier doesn't help. Personally I think the E4300 is the chip to wait for... it's two quarters away, though.

Skimmed whole thread. Seems like rare. Many had difficulty past 400 even Fugger :(

400 gives 2800Mhz on a 6300 not bad... with board is setup worth $360??? Can't decide/

Some people on XS were saying the Gigabyte 965 board can do 400 FSB easy. Its currently in stock @ Newegg for $149.

From the initial look, I'd probably put a Fan on the NB HS and tahts about it.

$223 for E6400 and $183 for 6300, although I think that's the wholesale price, not sure if that's suggested retail price

I believe that Gigabyte DS3 reaches 431MHz. According to XS folks.

That's the chip that may get me to purchase a Core 2 Duo, long as I can find a reasonably priced motherboard that can overclock well - preferably mATX. My current and past gaming rigs have been mATX, courtesy of nice Biostar Tforce boards. In two months gimme an $80 mATX board that has decent performance and decent overclockability, along with an under $150 C2D E4300... I'm all over it. If I have to, I'll spend $100-120 for a board and if it isn't mATX but standard ATX... ah well, dunno. Might be nice to play with but may not end up using it on a regular basis. The last board I bought like that was a DFI LANPARTY Ultra-D and I ended up only using it here and there on the test bench to help diagnose parts and to go for open air suicide overclocks. I NEVER put it inside a case for normal use. Just sold it too, to a good friend for $200 shipped including one of the better Opteron 144 chips I had plus an AMD heatpipe HSF.

I think the 9x multiplier of the E4300 will help it reach terminal overclock on modest boards. With the 360-370MHz FSB that Anandtech got, the 9x multiplier will get the CPU to 3.2-3.3GHz area. Really nice for the budget.

Nope, I saw the e6600 in stock, and now it is not. And the price people see intel listed on the various sites are the MSRP!

Intel does not make public how much they sell their CPU's to retailers for( so newegg doesnt know how much dell pays and vice a versa) Each retailer get their own price. Also, these chips are sold to retailers on credit, and their price is also based on how fast they can pay (typicially a discount within 10 days, must pay the rest within 30).

Anytime you see prices listed, it is the MSRP, especially in this case, because I have seen charts showing that it is the MSRP. Often times you see prices on newegg below Intel's listing price, this is how it is possible.

Other arrangments can be made with retailers, where the goods\chips are out on consignment, and even though the chips are physically at newegg, newegg does not own them until they are sold, and can return them to intel at anytime.

2800 would be sweet. So:

E6300 at ZZF 199.00
DS3 at the egg 160.00
Good DDR2 @ 200.00 for 2GB.

560.00 for a new platform that whups massive (dare I say) tushy? :D

Yeah, I'd imagine your doing just fine with that nice o/c. I, on the other hand, am on a lappy currently, so no justification needed for me :) . I am due.
