Intel e6600 Core 2 Duo at AMAZON

Does anyone know Amazon's return policy for CPU's?

My E6600 is supposed to be delivered by UPS tomorrow. Thinking about returning it and waiting for the July price cut on the Q6600.

E6600 is going to be returned back to Amazon. Going to wait for the Q6600 price drop in July instead.

fully understand..thanks

 
I'd love to keep waiting but my computer is crashing to death about now (the motherboard is bad but I had sorta bootleg repaired it with some new caps but it's started to get unstable again and I don't really care for having to underclock and undervolt the CPU just to keep it stable lol).

So it might be time =(

Well, then get the motherboard, RAM, and then a $35 Celeron D to hold you over until July when the quad core will drastically drop in price.

Or if your wallet is felling kind of sporty and you would like something a little bit better for the next four months, a Presler 65nm dual core Pentium D 3.0 GHz will cost less than $90.

Hmm...interesting idea...

Kinda sad that that Celeron D is faster than my system right now (had to underclock my 2.4B northwood to 1.9ghz lol)
