alrighty, so ive been looking over some LGA 775 cpus and i was a bit confused when i started comparing side by side over at newegg...heres what i was looking at

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Productcompa...029&bop=And

why is it that the 6750 cost less then the 6600 has a higher FSB and clock speed....

and also why is the Q6600 cheaper then the E6700 if the quad is, well quad, higher L1 cache, and its L2 isnt shared unlike the 6700...

6750 is cheaper because of the recent price cut. before the price cut the 6600 was the most popular proccessor (best bang for your buck) but now that the price cut happened, everyone has heard how great the E6600 is and started buying it like crazy. so newegg increased the price to get proffit

as for the Q6600 being cheaper, the E6700 has more GHz and is dual core. quad isn't always better. the E6700 does better at gaming than the Q6600 does, so there's still a good demand for those. the quad is only better with multi-threaded applications (video editing, encoding / decoding, etc.)

just get the Q6600, they can be overclocked way above any of the other chips you mention.

Uh....not quite buddy.

As for the pricing and Newegg, PermaSt0ne's kind of correct...although it's more like simple supply and demand and good business practice.

I just upgraded to a 6750. Really hard to pass up considering it was only $219 CAN. Since hardly anything currently needs a Quad, I didn't see the point in buying one yet. I'm waiting for the Penryn CPUs before going Quad.

Stay connected affordably in 120+ countries/regions with your own lifetime eSIM! An eSIM is a digital SIM card. It's basically just mobile data. Once it's activated on your device, it can connect you to data networks in other countries – giving you an internet connection with NO roaming charges. With aloSIM, you can load prepaid eSIM data packages onto your phone, tablet, or computer. Your lifetime eSIM never expires, so it's yours forever and there are never any monthly charges. You'll get $50 in eSIM data credit, which is almost always enough to cover all your data roaming needs for a full year. But if you run out of data, you can always top up your lifetime eSIM and stay connected internationally. Pay $24.97 for a lifetime eSIM with $50 in travel data credit Use your eSIM to join data networks in 120+ countries Install your lifetime eSIM on a compatible device to roam on local data networks Your lifetime eSIM never expires, and can be topped up with more data anytime Many data packages cost as little as $4.50 and last 7 days. Depending on the package you choose, the length of time varies. Good to know Length of access: lifetime For NEW customers only Instant digital redemption Once you add your $50 credit to your aloSim account you have up to 12-months to use it — after that your credit will expire When you pay for a data plan you also get a free phone number (via Hushed) for the same duration of your plan that was purchased - IE 7 day eSim plan gives you a free 7-day phone number Purchased coupon must be redeemed and used within 12 months This deal is not stackable (one offer per aloSIM account) A $4.50 data package will last 7 days The data DOES expire, and you WILL NOT have any leftover data for your next trip unless it takes place within the validity period. While the eSIM never expires, the actual data package is only valid for the length of time stated at purchase (i.e. seven days after activation, 30 days after activation, etc.) So if you buy a seven-day package and only use a tiny bit, that package is still going to expire after seven days.
