Loving this thread been watching the cpu's since it was originally posted. Got 2 at around $80 each then another 4 when they hit $62. My system was orginally a single socket hexacore socket 2011. I swapped that out for the 2670 and then started the search for motherboards. As many have noted in this thread the prices have skyrocketed due to the massive amount of socket 2011 cpu's for sale. I finally ended up just buying a new X9DR3-F from superbiiz (390ish shipped).
