E6420 or E6600???

I need help on deciding between these two CPU's. They both have 4M cache which is a HUGE plus! Both are SUPER OC capable but the 6420 costs about $40 less.

So which should I go with?

Think about how much time you're going to be spending on the pc, and you'll prolly find that that $40 is worth it.
The E6600 never fails to get great reviews and great user satisfaction.
I've never heard anyone even mention the E6420....

Yeah because it was just recently erleased. Saw two good reviews on newegg but not sure yet..not on a budget build but why pay extra for the same performance you know.

I guess I will wait for a few weeks or so until the 6420 gets more reviews...

I vote for the E6420 and then overclock it.

go with the e6400. You can OC it and get better results and power than the e6600. Look on Ebay too unless you live out of California for NewEgg.

For $40 and the hardware you have in your sig go for the E6600.
