[dafatha00]

wow...time to get a tbird..but the amd mustang will be out this summer if you guys want to wait, its supposed to be faster than the G4 processor

 

[formulav8]

the mustang is dead

 

[erub]

he's probably reffering to Palomino

 

[Frglss]

or SMU's football program? 🙂

 

[Vpham97]

Yeah,
Here is a toast to whatever jumble mumble techno term you're talking about.😕

Where are the dual processor boards when I need it..

 

[Sundog]

Damn:disgust:

I just got my 1 GHz Tbird delivered today for $155 and thought that was a good deal.

 

[Mister T]

155?????

 

[wjones]

$155 IS a good deal. Do you mind to tell us where to get it?

 

[wjones]

[Thump553]

Man, my (Classic) Athlon 750 retail bought this April for about $240 not looking like such a good deal anymore!

 

[jedithrawn13]

i'm sure he meant $255,

 

[kesmeg]

Arrggghhhh... i just bought one for $300 in retail box.
Hmmm... what's the current price for the 1Ghz T-bird retail?

 

[goofy2000]

How do you know when the price will be dropped?
Care to share the source of the information?

 

[Shu8]

damnit! me too kesmeg...but i bought from buy.com so hopefully they'll credit me

 

[RoadRuner]

whats the going overclockability of 1 gig tbirds? are they all blue?

 

[brown234]

What's the cheapest motherboard you can buy for this?

 

[Maverick319]

Why would you want to buy a top of the line Processor and then stick it in a Generic MOBO? An ASUS A7V is around 130.00 and the new version without ATA100 is around 100.00 The stuff Tiger Direct sells for 70-80 bucks may not even support ATA66. I would re-think your purchase if finding a cheap solution is the only solution. Duron?

 

[jacobnero6918]

Soyo has a board around $100 which was reviewed by Anandtech in there motherboard section. It got a good review if I remember rightly.

Now I'm off to pricewatch!

 

[Frglss]

I just boxed my 1GHZ 'Bird to go back to buy.com. Just under $300 for a retail CPU was good last week.

<< So I take it this place: http://www.lynncomp.com/shop3/ sells the CPU's with the price drop reflected already? >>



i imagine the prices will fall further once they're offically released, meaning we'll probably see 1ghz under $170

dammmmmnnnn that's cheap, Intel is soooo screwed 🙂 Looks like all my friends are getting 1ghz upgrades for christmas.

Despite all the lowered prices for the TBird 1 GHz, I still bought mine last week for $300 retail from Onvia (free shipping). Most of the OEM chips come with a 15 or 30 day warrantee while the retail versions carry a 3 year warrantee straight from AMD.

 

[Remedy]

3 Year warranty? who fooking cares? 😉 By this time next year you will be able to get a 1.5 pollymini for about 175 bucks by next september so big deal about the 3 year warranty.😛
