Title: Newegg is out of i7-6700 systems - recommend another seller?
Post by: SFC (Ret) Lyon on November 20, 2015, 10:54:52 PM

Basically everything powered by an Intel i7-6700 Skylake is Out of Stock or on Backorder. 

Newegg's been my go-to site for so long I don't even know what else is out there - can anybody recommend another good site to browse?

NCIX is pretty great I order most of my PC parts from them and Newegg. You can choose what company delivers the parts and they have life time product replacement. But I believe they are only located in the US and Canada. Also Amazon is having a sale right now through Black Friday I believe it is like $60 cheaper there right now.

Cannonlake is the die shrink of Skylake. It isn't due until 2017, as Intel released Broadwell and Skylake relatively close together.
