    Opteron 165 - $96Cdn, Opteron 146 $45Cdn

    crap, I would be all over this if it wasn't for the UP thing. Did they even make single core 165's !?

    e1505 Video Card Swap?

    I think this should work, but I would assume some of you might know this more than I do. Basically I want to buy the new e1505 (since it's on sale today) and throw my 6800 go into it since the x1400 sucks. Then possibly throw the x1400 into my 9300 and sell it. Do you guys think that's possible?

    Asus A8N32, DFI LAN Party, etc at Microcenter 20% off

    I searched the forums a bit before posting an didn't see that anyone has posted this deal since it?s actually been going for a while. But at any rate I picked up an RDX200 at MC last week and it was on sale from 220 to 175. I'm taking it back today to get the Asus, which is 250 there and...

    do amd cpus' still blow up if the heat sink is removed

    Actually if it's the tomshardware video where they compare the P4 to the AMD (which is old, I believe they were XP's or something) then I would doubt it's fake. Also I've ran my chip (while testing) with my finger on it and due to the heat spreader, you can run your computer longer...

    Opty 165 from newegg

    Yeah used MWave back in 96-00, but switched to newegg shortly after. Was just wondering if anyone was having any luck with the newegg retail procs and what their stepping was.

    Opty 165 from newegg

    I just acquired a 165 from newegg (for a hefty premium as most of you might know) and was just wondering if I completely was stupid for buying it from there. Is anyone buying the retail 165's from them and if so, is there anyone that's having good luck with them? I would wait to see for...

    **HOT **Dual Core Opteron 165 1mb cache x2 = $ 270.00

    I hate posting this question here in the hot forums, but I was just wondering how the current retail newegg processors are doing. I ordered one and have yet to receive it. Has anyone here bought one from there and found it's limit? Or is everyone getting theirs from monarch?

    hot !!!Star 1/01/06 micro center will have Amd x2 3800 new retail for $296.00!!

    Agreed, I'm going to stick with buying the Opty 165, but this is a pretty good deal. Now if someone could show me a place selling the 165 for the price greenman stated, then I'll be in business. It's too bad that's an outdated price from what I can see. Good job though OP. Oh and to the...

    Inspiron 9300 1.6ghz, 512mb, 40GB, DVD burner,802.11g $899 AR/AC

    I just ordered it for 1300 (w shipping/tax). I upgraded the screen (1900x1200 res), 6800Go, DVD-R, Bluetooth NIC, 9 Cell battery (People are claming 5 hours of surfing time). With that config for 1300 you're getting a hell of a deal. Yeah sure 900 dollars for a base laptop isn't that...

    DFI Ultra D ( Refurb ) @ Newegg

    I just got the X850XT from the refurb newegg section of the site. It is not guaranteed that you'll receive the manuals and whatnot, but it is possible. I've gotten 2 things from them (including an NF2 mobo) refurbed, both the mobo and the video card came with the open retail box and all of the...

    Arctic VGA Silencer Rev 3 $13.95 + shipping

    I had one of these on my 9500@9700 Pro card, after the cooler install.. it lasted for a while.... but died and gets artifacts all over the screen, even in the BIOS! It worked fine with my water block, and worked fine for about a week with the Sliencer Rev 3. I'm not sure if it killed it or...

    Athlon 64 3000+ OEM (Winchester 939) $119 at Monarch

    If you guys want really nice overclocking capability, I would get the DFI Infinity Ultra-D mobo. Newegg has these for 139 and as far as the HS/FAN goes I would get the XP-90. It's a very impressive cooler and can be found pretty cheap as well (I think I've seen them for around 25-30 dollars)...

    MSI Nforce 4 Ultra (Non SLI) 155 free shipping

    Too bad it's impossible to find a decent PCI-E video card and not spend 50-100% more than MSRP, or I would be upgrading. Bastards.

    Turn X800 Pro into X800 XT PE with Bios Flash

    Hey I searched this forum and others, tried to go through all of the data, but really haven't found a straight answer. Is there a mod for the PCI-E version of this card? (I See some people asked it earlier in THIS thread, but there weren't any answers yet). And if so... what brand...

    I like my Fossil Defender (19 jewels), Zodiak(s), and my Spot (.net) watch. Awesome deal on those watches if they're not fake, but not my style.

    SLI cooling?

    My question is... how the hell am I going to water cool those things? I have a MCW50 and it looks like I might be SOL. Was hoping I could just buy another one and be good to go :(

    Hey... since they don't ship until then... do they charge it to your account now? Or could I order it now and worry about the money on that date. (Someone at work is wanting it and won't have the money until the 15th). Thanks for the info!

    Toys R Us B&M 50% off clearance sale

    I'm starting work there next week and talked to a GM who had spoken to a District Manager that just got back from their big meeting in Florida. They basically stated that TRU isn't going out of business and that the most that will happen is that they'll be closing a couple of stores next year...
