When will they release, e.g be in stock on OcUK? and will there be a huge difference over the Conroe's? so far I've heard the Conroe's are really good.

a) looking at release within the next month-two months
b) imo probably not going to see a large increase in performance over conroe due to hardly anything being quad encoded
c) c2d conroe is still going to best bang for buck quad core is waste of money imho atm!

Is it going to be a lot more expensive than conroe's?

The Q6700 will be priced around the same as the Extreme Edition, so around the £700 mark.

If you're not sure whether or not you need 4 cores then you most likely don't. It's not going to benefit most users, hence it not being targeted at the mainstream.

Ya well it was just a thought because I was kind of thinking of building up a computer, I already have some of the parts. But it came about because I didn't see the point in buying DDR RAM when DDR2 is out.
