    E8700 $270?
    E8600 $269
    E8500 $188
    E8400 $165

    All E0 stepping. I'd still take an 8400/8500 and overclock it for $100 less...

    but you wont see 4.5ghz+ on air with either of those.

    That's right. They might be (no sSpec data yet) the same stepping, but this is clearly a much better speed bin to achieve 3.5GHz on the same TDP.

    This will definitely become the single-thread benchmarker's chip of choice.
