BTW, don't they already have a Sandy Bridge without graphics - P67

P67 is chip set, graphics is integrated in CPU.. on P67 motherboard you can not use it (but the graphics is still there)

it would make sense for CPU without graphics to be cheaper. and people who uses P67 motherboard can buy cpu without graphics because they dont use it anyway.

Yeah I know that, I am a guru.

That is why I had the sarcastic smiley there.

You never know, we have some specialty gurus here that are only good with certain things. Anyhow p67 is dead so is h67. Now that we have the z68 that does everything both of them did. ...and the x79+ boards are circulating now. I would have gone one of those on this build but the socket 2011 is still a bit of a premium price. Especially for decent motherboards..

...wait a second what are we talking about again?

Looks like a multi bumb of a 2500K.
Kinda like the 2600 Vs 2700 .. which is only a few dollars more.

So, the multi bump and few dollars more seems about right ... if it had the graphics.
A bit odd it doesn't at the price
