 But here's some good things to think about. 1) You don't have to buy a Cantorwood and go through the bleeding-edge agony like some of us. I have to return my board today due to problems. 2) The Cantorwoods are built for 800fsb procs which means that you should really have PC3200 or higher to truly take advantage of the bus speed. 3) If you purchased your 3.06 for under $401 you still got a good deal. Hope that makes you feel a little better.  | |

| The 3.06 has dropped over $170 in the last month. The drop started right after I ordered mine.  Newegg and googlegear both have the retail box for $378. Would I have waited if I knew they were going to drop that much? Probably not. |
