Q6700 Kentsfield 2.66GHz 1066 4MB x 2 $530
Q6600 Kentsfield 2.4GHz 1066 4MB x 2 $266
E6850 Conroe 3GHz 1333 4MB $266
E6750 Conroe 2.66GHz 1333 $183
E6550 Conroe 2.33GHz 1333 $163
Wow - a 1333 fsb 2.66 part for $ 183.. that is scary!
This "kinda" does make sense however.
Intel has confirmed a 1600 mhz FSB for their server chips, so clearly a 1600 mhz fsb for the consumer side is possible.
IF (huge if) intel is planning:
3.6 ghz on 1600 FSB @ $999
3.4 ghz on 1600 FSB @ $525
3.2 ghz on 1600 FSB @ $316
for Q3 then these part "seems" to make sense.
Clearly intel has the headroom to release the 3.6 ghz parts.. it may be a very interesting Q3 if Barcelona/Athena work as promised
