Intel Core 2 Quad Core Q6600 with free game £234.99 + delivery


£234.99

26°

FOUND BY: charlie12 2 years, 4 months ago

Nice price for this, I know many people here get free delivery with Scan, otherwise delivery is about £6. Also comes with a free copy of Supreme Commander while stocks last.

The price of this will probably be sub-£200 at some point in August (price drops on 22nd July but as many of you know, retailers are slow to reduce prices. The last Intel price drop took almost a month for prices to reach the expected amounts).

Still worth waiting if you can, though if you can't wait this is currently the best price :)

Yep good price, I think Intel have told retailers they could drop their prices due to them not being able to sell any because of the upcoming pricedrops.

Expect the price to drop to around £175 in 3-4 weeks though (aswell as them introducing G0 stepping around the same time).

The scan price includes postage (£222.08+P&P), but the overclockers one doesnt, so the scan one is cheaper.

It’s less than £4 difference including postage. If they run out of stock you no where to go.

Wait until after July 22nd. Those on sale now are the existing stocks on dealers shelves. They are identified as "B3" revisions. Scan and OCuK are trying to clear this stock before the new "G0" revisions are released on 22nd. The Q6600 "G0" revisions will then be on sale for £180, "G0" revisions run cooler than the "B3" versions. My advice is do not buy a Q6600 now, wait until the price drops to £180 on or shortly after 22nd July, and make sure you buy the "G0" version.
