Hmmm is the e4300 for sale yet? I'm laying down dibs on a p5b deluxe right now. That with the ram on my intel 550 with cascade or phase should tear out the hearts of the prescotts.
Yeah I thought it was febuary, I've had a few offered my way at a bit over retail pricing but I passed. As for prescotts, yeah a little behind but I still like paying into phase over paying into my computer.
I liked my G.Skill RAM enough to buy a gig for pc#2, a second gig next month. For the price they're hard to beat, and a lot of people seem to like them. Went with Corsair with my first build, and even they they worked flawlessly they cost a good bit more than other brands. Had OCZ DDR-500, but trying to get them to run at 500MHz didn't happen, had to settle for 490. The G.Skill are running great at tighter timings/speed than adverised... that and lower cost will get my business.
Arrived yesterday, picking up from my moms today, will finish and begin load testing my own unit (- the case with stealthing), and will test the ram soon.
