Just seen this for sale for £475 including delivery... I have seen it compares to a Core2duo E6600 performance wise and I cant see a E6600 system for anywhere near that price. Has anybody seen spec like this for cheaper???

yeah its worth the money - and don't get hung up on core II duo most people won't use them to their full potential and their full potential comes from overclocking anyway.0
