duron 1.3's - $37 new, about the same now.

duron 750 (don't have it anymore) - $37 new, probably 10 bucks less now.

Those are the only new cpu's I've ever bought.

I don't throw money away on useless billihertz :)

1.8A.. I think I got it for around $180ish in September.. it goes 2.6Ghz like a champ. :D

I won a 2100+ and a 2400+ at the AMD events so the cost was eventually nullified.. ;):)

It's $150 now at TCWO, where I got mine from.

Bought p4 2.53 at 175 (was a bundle deal) and the proc is like 100 dollars. Too lazy too look it up. Betcha it is cheaper by now.

Bought my Tbird-C 1GHz from Newegg back in May 2001 when the AXIA craze was going on. Paid $143 shipped I believe. Not sure what they cost now, under $40 easily.
