The relese of the qx68 chip had a slimming effect on the price of the q6600 chip. Its down to 460$ on Newegg.com at the moment. The q6600 is the only quad core CPU worth buying at the moment. The 6700 is just a lab queen 6600 OC'd .2-some Hz. Save you money and buy the 6600 and two 8800gtx's instead.
