Intel’s 14nm Skylake-S Complete Lineup List Prices Leaked – Core i7 6700K and Core i5 6600K to Retail for $313 and $225 Respectively

Which translate as
6700K £200
6600K £145

Bargains if it's true. However this is rip off Britain and we can probably expect dollar pound parity if we're lucky !

"The flagship SKU, Intel Core i7 6700K will retail for $313 which is actually pretty cheap, considering the previous flagship MSRPs of $339 USD and $377 USD for the Core i7-4790K and Core i7 5775C respectively"

4790K is £289.99
5775C is Broadwell around £295

Just to clarify I am not necessarily saying there is a rip off britian, the original poster did

All I was saying is vat brings it £240 plus shipping costs before the rip off Britian factor if it exists

My bad grammer

Why would we have any extra shipping costs? The chips have 'Manilla' stamped on them so shipping to the US will probably cost much the same as shipping into Europe.

Well the Big US dealers haven't updated their pages yet, but I expect we will see a big difference between the US price for Skylake and the £300 we are being asked for in the UK.
