If this is the case, then once the flyer comes out; I'll take my receipt back to Best Buy and get them to price match their own sale...
Some motherboards will need a bios update to use the new wolfdale processors and some will not. You need to check with your MB manufacture and see if their latest bios supports the chip.

I'm was in the same boat with assembling the parts for a new computer and wondering what OS to put on it. I kept going back and forth between XP Home & Vista and after talking to a bunch of people; I went ahead and purchased a copy of Vista Home Premium when Best Buy had it on sale for $129.99...
I just got through purchasing a MSI P35D3 motherboard and need some help and/or suggestions on on what type of DDR3 memory to purchase for use in this motherboard.
I don't plan on overclocking the CPU (which will be an E6850) unless the new Intel CPU's get released soon. The computer will...
