A little heads up, the Fry's 2 hours from me was still sold out of that processor from last weekend and had no idea when they would get more, despite the website still listing it as available for pick-up. Tread carefully.

My promo code doesn't seem to work with the 5820K. Bummer.

I think it's in-store only.

It is in store only. What I did was order online, when I went in and picked it up I had them apply the promo code. I paid $277 for mine 3 weeks ago.. should go back and get my dorrar.. ;p

Yeah, after I posted I then saw it was in-store only. So they don't charge you until you pick it up and then you can apply the code?

Yup, they charge when you pick it up and you can apply the code in store. Nice way to ensure they don't have a sudden case of "OOS" by the time you get there.

I wonder what the resale value of a 5820 will be if I buy one now and then swap it out for a Broadwell-E in 4-6 months?

At this price you will probably be able to sell it for close to what you paid.... which will still most likely be not near enough for a good Broadwell-E at launch. /rolleyes

True.

I think I am just going to pass on this deal for now.
