Do appreciate all UR info on the MB's as to processors,
I followed UR link, excluded the EE version based on $$$, tried to
find info on the other 2, the 3.20 and 3.20E, followed link to
resellers and the 3.20E is not even listed by Intel as available to
resellers, also I could find no ref. for the 3.20E pkg, FC-PGA4, I
must assume that it is unavailable? Thanks again for UR time.

(yep should not have mentioned Gigabyte in same message, but Toms
Hardware rated it best of the 875P MB's)
 
AFAIK the 3.2E is the 'prescott' processor.

The C are northwoods, the EE is a repacked Xeon and the E is prescott.

So being that Intel was having heat problems with early runs, you may just
not be able to order it at the moment. Given some of the sites reviews of
the lower speed prescotts, I dont think I'll be upgrading for a while, At
least until they ramp up the speeds a bit.

The Intel pricelist is here. This is the wholesale price in 1000 processor
lots.

Using pricewatch.com, it looks like some of these processors are due
Feb.13-20, so sometime this month would be a good guess.
