its the extreme edition. who bought the i7 975? exactly. now wait and see if intel announce a bunch of six cores @ say 2.8ghz and they cost half as much. i7 970 is 3.2 and should cost maybe 600. much more realistic for consumer use, not that anyone needs six cores right now for most tasks * +

+70 quid over the 975? i guess they think its a bargain :D * +

well they arent gonna sell many low end six cores right now i suspect so they may as well just keep the prices artificially inflated, they arent conducting a charity here after all.
