Core i7 Launches - Post The Best Prices And Report Price Gouging Here!
I just received an email from Scan, telling me that their Nehalem stuff was in stock, but the prices are hideous so I thought I'd start a thread to find Core-i7 'bargains' and to point out places to avoid because of price gouging.

At the moment could only find some amateurs here in Italy, nobody can compete with the allmighty overclockers.co.uk.

Yeah Aussie prices aren't that much better 
with AUD$1 = £0.42 or US$0.65
i7 920 = AUD$595-620 = £250-260
i7 940 = AUD$999-1199 = £420-504
i7 965EE = AUD$2050-2299 = £861-966

Yeah they look pretty grim too, although the £420 for a 940 looks a little more easy on the wallet than our cheapest of £516.

Even a bust clock tells the right time twice a day.

I hadn't heard of them till i saw ads for them on the old home page before the google ads went away.
Site looks slick, not that will tell us anything.
I wouldnt buy from them either unless i had more info on them, so maybe strike them from the list for now.

I've seen dinopc come up on several google searches, but I haven't bought from them and I don't know anyone else that has, so I think we can leave them out for now.
I should also make it clear that I'm not recommending any particular etailer here, just pointing out the difference in prices.
