Could someone tell me why there is $40 difference.

I see that the best buy looks like it does not have the (4.0ghz Turbo) while the newegg product does. Is this why the price is different, or is it just the stores pricing the cpu cheaper than the other one and their is no difference at all with the product?

They are the same processor and $129 is a GREAT price.

Agreed they are the same CPU. I can't believe Bestbuy has a better price. I imagine Newegg will price match, and I don't think you'd have to pay tax.

Same price on TigerDirect as BestBuy lol, guess they partnered up or something.

bestbuy is guaranteed to charge tax though and probably shipping.
