    About the only thing that sticks out...

    cpu - Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Kentsfield 2.4GHz LGA 775 Quad-Core Processor Model HH80562PH0568M - retail

    But I didn't see anything 'better' at a price that wouldn't make your eyes pop...

    Anyone know why Intel is having all their processors sound like they are named after mid 80s housing developments lately?
