They've been out for a few weeks now. You can find them pretty much anywhere over here. Mainly because everybody is going for the E8400. And tbh, that's what i recommend you should get too. The extra 160Mhz the e8500 is going to be barely noticeable.

Two cores is so old skoool ... its kinda like DX9, seeing as how everything is prettified in DX10, and ...
Ohhh, I'll stop now .. it was fun lying thru my teeth, but .. bahahaa, it was good for a grin at least.
I think dual is OK, but I am waiting for summer before I jump on a CPU deal, and hopefully quad core is easier to recommend at that time.Oh if a man tried to take his time on Earth and prove before he died what one man's life could be worth, well I wonder what would happen to this world ? - Harry ChapinComment

The 8500s aren't out in quantity in the US .. all I find are pre-orders. Care to link us up, Juneau ?Oh if a man tried to take his time on Earth and prove before he died what one man's life could be worth, well I wonder what would happen to this world ? - Harry ChapinComment

Surprisingly, I give Juneau props on all choices .. I wouldn't change anything from his list, altho there are plenty of items that were selected.
Nice work, and that looks like a well planned rig.
We'll assume he would add the eVGA 8800GTS 512mb card as well.Oh if a man tried to take his time on Earth and prove before he died what one man's life could be worth, well I wonder what would happen to this world ? - Harry ChapinComment

Bad timing on purchasing that case. It was $90 after a $90 MIR from Newegg back in late November.
To make it worse, it was FREE shipping at the same time on it too.Oh if a man tried to take his time on Earth and prove before he died what one man's life could be worth, well I wonder what would happen to this world ? - Harry ChapinComment
