Cheapest Core 2 E6300 price on the Web!

[tuanming]

For those who're tired of their outdated processors: Pentium 3/4/D and yes you too AMD users! Well, lucky for you guys i just happen to find the cheapest price that no other E-Retailer's could offer this low low price!

ClubIT Product - Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 Conroe 1.86GHz 2MB L2 LGA775 Processor OEM HH80557PH0362M

Why buy this processor? Well, this cpu/processor is highly overclockable (i've seen this baby clocked to 3.60Ghz) when you have the necessary hardwares (DDR2 800 rams and a good motherboard that support/compatible with it)

Speaking of motherboard you'll need a decent board to get the most out of your processor. For Asus brand, at least go with P5B then P5B-E and P5B-Deluxe. Don't like Asus board/brand? Here are my picks from Gigabytes boards: GA-965P-DS3 (rev. 2.0), GA-965P-DS4 (rev. 2.0) and GA-965P-DQ6 (rev. 2.0) Personally, i think the P5B Deluxe is currently the best board for any Core 2 processor so if you got the cash go for it!

So you've upgraded your cpu/processor, rams, and motherboard. Are you ready to feel the differences, the awesomeness of Core 2? Well, first try PCSX2! and that should probably give you a clue to how powerful these Core 2 cpu's are. Last but not least, even if you have you Core 2 cpu but you graphic card sucks then i'd suggest you to upgrade it too!

Actually, I got mine for a little less.

WOW! Nice find General Plot! E6300 in a box, cpu cooler and does it come with a 3 yrs warranty as well since retail one does? Well, to tell you the truth they raised the price $10 more. Last week it was $159.99 with free-shipping too.

Cheapest here is ~170 euros... Makes importing tempting if it weren't for the fact I always have hardware crapping out on me, so I'm kinda highly dependant on warranty

Yeah, warranty and all. Of course, I didn't want stock cooling (plan to overclock later when I get a better board), so I bought this for it too.

Well I also wanted to upgrade to C2D E6300 but where should I get it.
Because I am in Pakistan and E6300 is worth 12700Rs (212 usd) that
very expensive also DDR2 533 512MB worth 3400Rs (57 usd). So what
I do.

Get it from ebay or the link that i had linked in the first post...and ship it to Pakistan? (not sure if the seller would ship it to Pakistan..)

same problem with me too but an e6300 cost around 10,000 in india and ddr2 for 3200,combined with mobo and a nice graphics card the cost of my dream computer turn upto some 35,000 u know its way too much price for us maybe nice hardware is made or the rich only

I got my 6300 with an Intel mobo(with PCI-e x16 and DDR800 support) from my friend for a little over $200. He paid about the same price to get it from this retail program he took part of. The AMD guy at our store said it was a piece of crap, but of course HE'S going to say that.
