    FX-55 *San Diego* OEM now down to $130 at the Egg

    When I built my machine a few years ago, I installed a 3000+ thinking that as prices dropped I would go to a faster processor. Yesterday, I purchased the FX-55 from Newegg for the same price I paid for my 3000+. My machine will last me sometime to come and this is a great value.
