I am very concerned. I just ordered a Dell 2007FP but then found out that there isn't even a panel lottery with it anymore and almost all units are S-PVA. So I'm about to cancel it because I found a price from a Canadian website for a HP LP2065. But I just checked prad.de and they say the...

:o Hey LazyC. I have started to test out the first chip I got, an L209 (malay week 9). Still waiting to test the costa that's the same as yours. I'm disappointed in this Malay. It seems to be a lot like the first Costa you tested, even slightly worse. It won't do 150 FSB under any conditions...

Hey LazyC! Remember me? Well, I have a CPU with the exact same FPO/Batch# as both of yours, I guess (from Future Shop on Eglinton and Laird). I haven't tested it, or opened it yet, because my DDR RAM hasn't arrived from Vancouver yet (tuesday I think). So I have a couple question for ya: The...

How did you pricematch a mobo at FutureShop? They don't sell mobos, last time I checked. The only components they sell are external peripherals, optical drives, hard drives, video and audio cards (retail only), networking stuff, and really crappy RAM. I was shocked they sold Intel Retail CPUs...

Thanks LazyC. What board you running it on, and with what memory? I'm thinking if I can get my ram within 3 days and set up a test rig, I'll test the Future Shop one. If it OC's really well I will return the other one since the price from FS will be a few bucks less. But then again I may test...

Long story short, bought one at last week's price, then found one at Future Shop with a different FPO/Batch and newer pack date, bought it with price protection. Both unopened. I can return one of them if it's unopened (the Malay one) and the other within 15 days no matter what. Problem is I...

Can someone who has this board comment on whether it is possible to lock the PCI/AGP bus? Like the Abit BD7-II, where you can fix PCI/AGP at 33/66 regardless of what you set FSB to? That's very important to me.
