Re: Headlines - Intel's 2.66GHz Nehalem chip to target the mainstream at $284?

So, a nehalem chip for £200 in maybe October? You're making me want to put off my planned upgrade to a E8400. Mind you with 4gb DDR3 costing £250 and the first mobos costing maybe £150 thats a total of £600. I guess it will be best to put 3x2gb ddr3 on a nehalem board so I'm guessing £300 for that maybe. It might be worth waiting til 2009 for DDR3 prices to fall some and for any wrinkles to be ironed out. Maybe a £300 E8400 upgrade now isn't such a bad idea. *scratches head* hmmmm
