I "was" about to build a computer, but today I was cheching the prices and the Intel core 2 quad Q6600 shot up from $480 to $659??!!! That is a major price change. Before this happened, the price had been steadily dropping every week. What caused this increase, and will the price come back down anytime soon?

Thats why I dont use Newegg... they are 499 at Tiger Direct and as low as 455 from other locations.

Just noticed.. Tigers deal even comes with a FREE
XFX nForce 680i LT SLI Socket 775 Motherboard!
NewEgg is a RETAIL priced location why buy full retail when many sell for near wholesale?

Seemed to be a temporary instance, as it is back at $475 today. No clue why it happened, bu fortunately it is back at a normal price now. Not really sure what that last guy was talking about, TigerDirect and Newegg are basically the same type of site, and in fact Newegg usually is a few dollars cheaper on processors.
