Just ordered my 3930K from Directron for $654.99, I even called to make sure it was in stock and was told I should have it by Thursday of next week. Take that Provantage.

I found this the other day, but had to wrestle for a few days with the same thing...paying $750.00 including tax...California damn.

Well, I just ordered and hopefully will have in the next couple days. Pissed I had to pay that much. I almost just went ahead and ordered the 3960K for a few hundred more dollars. But, in the end I couldn't make myself do it.

I'm happy to report my 3930k came in, the computer was built, and I'm currently awating delivery.

Good luck to all who are still waiting. Hopefully it won't be very much longer for you.

I just got a confirmation that mine was shipped. They are in Ca. So I should have it tomorrow, Wednesdayat the latest.

One question, anyone running the Rampage IV and Gskill memory? I had to box up my Phantek cooler and send it back. It was not going to clear. So, I need to pick up a cooler...I will be using all Dimm sockets, so clearance is an issue. Anyone got any ideas? Will upgrade to w/c down the road.

Hey guys - old time reader, new at posting.
For all of you looking for a 3930K Ebay store "JNCS.com Tech Solutions" have them in stock. I got mine from there over a week ago, factory sealed, C2, etc... I just checked this morning 20 sold and still have some available. I Googled JNCS and just called their store number to verify stock. I don't mean to be trolling here, but they got em and they're legit.

Hey all, just got mine at newegg. Still in stock as of right now. $600 flat, reasonable shipping, no sales tax since I'm not in CA. One caveat- you must buy it as a combo with another item. No worries for me- many combos are available and I needed to pick up an LGA2011 mobo as well. Happy shopping!

compared to the 3960x which costs a $1000, with the difference is less cache on the k makes it a better option to the x
