    Ooooooh, yummy yummy!

    If only they didn't cost the earth and kick out as much heat as my radiators I'd be tempted. You say water cooling wasn't used, but the stock coolers are OEM water coolers according to several articles I've seen

    being one of them....

    Not bad, the prices are putting me off, I don't like how there differentiating there CPU's this time around, no longer can you get a full fat (cache / cores ect) but with a lower clockspeed at a reasonable price and clock the nuts off it, if you want the full fat Sandy Bridge E it seems the $999 model is the only way.

    I'm sure it's going to be quick. Just not quick enough to be remotely exciting or any more future proof than a 2500k at a guess.

    Tatty, im not sure the water cooling will be 'stock', at least for some of the cheaper chips. You should really be getting it thrown in for the classic $999 extreme chip though.

    The watercoolers are a optional extra Intel will be offering.
