u are paying way too much for a cpu like that! This one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819115004 is cheaper and alot better. U will probably need a different mobo to go with this one, though I'm not sure. The socket is the same but some of the lga 775 mobos don't support the core 2 duo cpus.

yes. So it was canadian dollars? No wonder u had quite high prices. But still, I'd go with the e6400, the performance is superior compared to the older intels.
