I've been going back and forth on processors for a while now. I was set on the 6320/6420, but for the price decided a 6600 would be a good upgrade. Now the new processors are coming out in July so I'm wondering...which to choose? Get the e6600 now for $226 or wait until the end of July for the new ones? The info on the new processors and prices is below.

I'm getting a DS4 mobo which is compatible with a 1333 FSB. I may overclock some, but have never done it before so won't go too overboard with it. I'm not too interested in the q6600, even though it's price is getting halved. I really have no use for it and the heat it would produce in my PC. I'll just be using office programs, Photoshop, burning DVDs, multimedia, and some gaming.
Thoughts?
