athlon 64 socket 939 3200 $168 SHIPPED

was trying to look for the best price on a new 939 socket cpu.
and well i finally got one... splurged the extra $20 to get a 3200 instead of a 3000. i think it was worth it.

svc.com has a suprisingly cheap price on the 3200+ oem.

http://www.svc.com/a643200939-99.html

$163. less than some places charge for a 3000.


USPS priority mail shipping is $5. tax in california but even with tax, its less than the cheapest in pricewatch (and that one is in CA also)

if you need a really cheap fan, they have this one for $5 , a coolermaster unit (i got this too....)

oem is not worth the saving, I always buy retail, "free" heatsink, fan and usually 3yrs manufactory's warranty. They are worth that extra ~$10-20 for me.

It's worth it to people who plan on overclocking and voiding their warranty anyway, and for those who plan to use 3rd party copper HSF units.

i plan to void any warranty i would get with it the same day i install it.
 
ive never had a cpu fail on me outside of being dead on arrival. unless you are gonna go crazy o/c which woulda voided your warranty anyway on a retail one, i dont think its worth the extra in this case $30. that $5 coolermaster fan, is probably equivalent to whatever AMD would give you anyway.
 
I've been away from CPUs for a while. Is this an "overclocker"?

My 939 A64 3200+ reaches 2.4Ghz (2.0 Ghz is stock) at default voltage using the retail hsf., so yes this is an "overclocker"!
 
I emailed them to ask about steppings, but their reply was they get random steppings so they couldn't tell me what I would get. I still think I will jump on this one tomorrow.

Yea this is supposedlly a very good overclocker at this price level. Look through the general hardware forum.

Too bad they don't have a similarly good price on the retail version I woulda jumped on that.
 
i ordered it, i guess ill update with stepping later when i get it.


i didnt even know they had that first class option.. i bought the heatsink too though, so i think that would make it weigh more than first class allows.

Yes
 
Had to jump on this deal.

I would be so happy if I get lucky and it'll run 1:1 with my RAM and at x10 multiplier, putting it at 2.75Ghz. We'll see though.
