I RMA'ed my processor and mobo (was having some problems I couldn't figure out, and something was going wrong with either of these two core components). My original RMA was set up as an exchange, not a refund. But I check online on Friday night and they refunded my money, instead of exchanging the parts...
I called this morning and they said they didn't know when they would get anymore AMD64 3500+ processors, so they refunded my money instead.
So right now, I have a case, memory, hard drives, DVD/CD burners, video card, sound card, and ...yah.
But no processor and motherboard! Turns out Newegg stopped selling the 3500+ processors.
Does anybody have any ideas as to why Newegg stopped carrying all but one AMD64 939 socket processor? The only other 939 they carry is the 3800+, which is way out of my budget...
Does anybody have any suggestions as far as what other processor/motherboard would be a good buy? I wanted a 939 processor simply because of the fact that the processor has two pipes to the memory (i.e., twice the memory throughput). Whatever motherboard I do get now, it has to support DDR3200.
Ideas/thoughts appreciated.
