Prices? 

Hmm, I read somewhere that it would be about $530, realisticly making it about £400 in the UK, which is about right, a bit more than a E6700, and a bit less than 2 x E6600

The Core 2 Quad Q6600 officially costs $851, according to Intel's website, Jack.

That said, it's rumoured to be planning price cuts in Q2, which *should* see the price fall to $530.

Re: Prices? 

Scan are currently quoting a £574 retail price, bang in the middle of the range suggested by Leo. No mention of when it'll be available, mind.
