Wolfdale e8200, e8400 and e8500 available for Pre-Order!

The e8500 arrived this morning :)

Haven't installed the chip yet i'm still at work :( , have looked in the box though and noticed how small the heatsink is.

Can someone confirm that the stock heatsinks for these new 45nm duals is approx half the height of the old stock heatsink ?
