Seems to be a lot of people dumping their i7 920's on the cheap finally now that the new parts are out. Hell, there's even someone selling a new-in-box never opened part for $200 shipped.

I've probably counted about 4 or 5 920's for sale this weekend. Deals to be had people! Go upgrade!!!

is difference between a i5 750 and i7 920 HT Off both at 4.0 Ghz is negligible? If it is significant i would probably upgrade

Hasn't MicroCenter had them for $200 for the last year or so?

I love the falling prices on D0's, that means I might be able to snag a CHEAP CHEAP C0 stepping.

I've seen 2 under $200 this weekend as well. Besides, 90% of us don't have a Microcenter nearby. Besides, $200 flat is still cheaper than $199.99 + Sales Tax & Gas.

yea i7 920 are $300+ before tax here in canada :(

Not worth the money to me right now. It's all still too expensive and it'll be cheaper later.
