E6320, E6420, & E4400 - all NOW AVAILABLE

[cyburzaki]

Both Bottom Line Communications (BLT) and Sparco's availability checkers now show that Ingram Micro warehouses have all three of these processors in stock:

E6320

E6420

E4400 (thanks, RamIt)

E4400 instock too for $152.76

yeah I saw this company with 4400 preorder etc. wonder how they got their supply in so fast while newegg hasn't got them yet, maybe they have a insider at fab 36 in dresden?

man egg still has E6300 for 181, this company gonna make tons money selling E6320 at 186 if they can get them sold before egg or others catch on!

I can't wait 'til these hit ~$135 and also we get some reviews on how they OC compared to the E4300.
The higher multiplier should help it OC higher with less strain on the motherboard.

Nice! Now just gotta wait for the E4400 to go under $140 or E4300 to go under $120.

Crazy thing is that the E4300 is $185 at the same store! I want the lower multiplier on the E4300 unfortunately... hopefully they will drop to around $120 in a month or so.

and I took advantage of it, hopefully I get it shipped this week with the 2-day shipping

Anyone know how these will overclock? Should I pull the trigger now and buy one of these, or get the E6300 and overclock the snot out of it?

might as well get the E6320/E6420 and tell us that. we already know how the E6300 will overclock anyways...(usually around 3Ghz)

Xbit Labs' comparison has been oft-quoted in recent weeks. But at this point I wouldn't extrapolate any long term conclusions from their overclocking findings, as they tested just one specimen of each processor, making their results statistically insignificant.

But also remember if you buy a recently manufactured E6300 or E6400 you'll be getting a Q-batch processor, which means one with a genuine Allendale core (i.e., L2 stepping). And lots of people are saying those haven't shown the same overclockability as the earlier L-batch E6300 and E6400s, which had a Conroe core (B2 stepping) with half the cache neutered. Since the new E6320 and E6420 will have a full 4MB of L2 cache, they will also once again be Conroe-based chips.

Personally, I would (and am planning to) buy one of the new chips, and probably the E6420 for its higher multiplier. Xbit Labs' oc'ing results, even if they aren't statistically significant, certainly don't argue against that decision.
