AMD LE 1640 disappears

[75below0]

So this week I was going to order the components for my budget HTPC,
which WAS to include an AMD LE 1640...only to discover that it has vaporized from the web from one week to the next, including the AMD website.
I guess it's not that big a deal to drop down to the LE 1620, but if I had known I would have ordered sooner!
When you only want a single core, 2.6GHz@45W for $55 seems pretty sweet.

Anyone know where I can get a new one?

I found the 1620 at mwave for $47.

I have them in stock, but I cannot sell it to you, we are wholesale only.

has them, pulling from our stock.

Is this the CPU you are looking for?

AMD LE-1620 @ 2.4GHz is $47 w/free shipping from Newegg. Iirc, I saw the LE-1640 on sale for $36.99 on Newegg. Maybe they were clearing out stock.

I just built a low budget rig using a turion 64 (35w) from starmicro for only $17 shipped. The biostar 754 board cost me only $19.25 shipped from another vender (they have a few more one of a kind boards if interested). I called up their tech support and he opened the box to see what accessories were included before I ordered.

Too funny, the LE-1640 is only .99 cents more than the LE-1620 at newegg.

At least it's not cheaper than the LE-1620 this time.
