Newegg's bug fixed. Now buy the XP2800+ with ANY AMD MB! No need for a heatsink either. :)

I just called Newegg They had a bug in the system, it's fixed now. They said it's simply any AMD MB if put the XP 2800 in your cart and check out. It's AMD's requirement at this point...

I just checked out with the XP 2800 and A7N8X! Can't wait!

I just tried it to see if it works and it does.
You no longer need a heatsink either.

Thanks for the report! 😀 Mmmm... 2800+, A7N8X-Deluxe, 2 Corsair XMS3500 DIMMs... now where can I get $1000? 🙁

Yikes.....


mechBgon... I'm with you on that, but sadly, I'll have to wait on this one.

It still isn't worth spending the money at this point. It will be interesting in awhile though.

Hmm.. you just described what I just ordered yesterday, substitute the 2800+ for a 2400+
Apparently it's a very popular combo 😀
