Quad core is tempting. However, there aren't many programs/games supporting quad core now. I think it is better to wait a little bit longer, at least until more programs supporting multicore comes out. By then, the prices will be lower!!!

QUOTE(Thunderbolt @ May 22 2007, 07:37 PM) I ordered E6700 few weeks ago, now abit regret since the next price slash are so near... Great to hear the news of the price cuts. At least, I can put off any upgrading till then. Maybe i will upgrade by that time...  @TS, better change your title to "July 2007"!  |

Anyway, E6600 also not bad mah althought by 22nd July it is going to be cheaper! Why not buy 2nd cheap cheap proc then can sell off later when price drop?

QUOTE(Phoenixwunin @ May 26 2007, 01:41 PM) So I'll go for option 2... seems like Quad doens't sound that good to me... Thanks for helping me with the decision.. So, I presumed you're getting the E6600? IMO, that's a good choice, will last for at least for a few years |

QUOTE(eXtreme(tm) @ May 26 2007, 07:10 PM) Ya, the list was posted up a few pages back. That's what we're waiting for! Q6600 at USD 266. In addition, the ringgit is going to be stronger by then!!! |

QUOTE(Kloe @ Jun 7 2007, 03:28 PM) i was just wondering abt the July 22nd price cut, will it be immediate? i mean will i be able to get the processors at the reduced prices on 22nd (or 23rd) July from lawyat? I should think so. Even for the 22nd April price cut, the prices in lowyat changed almost at the same time.Can't remember, but I think there were a few vendors who changed their prices before that??? |

QUOTE(arjuna_mfna @ Jun 10 2007, 09:50 AM) for incoming price slash both q6600 and X6850 will be priced at usd266 ~ rm900+,but q6600 hv 4 core vs 2 core, good for multitasking, even q6600 can oc to 3ghz++ If you get quad core, remember to get a good HSF cause it's going to be smoking hot when you OC it!!! |
