Can anyone tell me why the prices of the 1.6a went up just now? I got mine at a local comp store for $140...
Did the price of the Pentium 4 1.6A went up?
I got my retail 1.6A for $130.00 shipped in March 2002.

Nice price!
The reason the price went up is because Intel has quit making the P4 1.6A.
The supplies are drying up so get them while you can

I bought P1.6A a week before Blue BVG ends so that I can still PM 60 days down the road.
Does not look good for PMing now.
But worse for people who are looking for it now.
BTW, this baby OC to 2.2 easy.

BTW, PC World says that Intel will drop the prices on the cpu line on Sep 1. The 1.8A will drop 13%.
I got this chip from newegg a while ago for 130.
This chip rules, pumped it up to 2400 ghz the first day I put it together.
Been running stable ever since (and cool). My current uptime is 6 weeks 3 days.

I, too, got one back in March for $141.00. "Many ppl are getting their 1.6's up to 2.4 anyway." You mean their 1.8's, right?
newegg wants $160 for the 1.6a and $167 for the 1.8a, considering you can get a celeron 1.8 for $100 bucks, i get that till these overpriced cpu's drop.
My 1.8A I built last Friday just posted at 2.7. :Q Couldn't believe it, but my memory is sh!t so I need some new Mushkin to hold that stable.
how do you overclock 1.6A to 2.7G ? can anyone post information on how to do it? a link would help thanks in advance!
OOS i believe, btw you might want to give credit to who you jacked it from unless you didn't jack it
netsfan, ocing depends on your mobo. There are several threads in the motherboard forum on OCing.
I have a 1.8a stock with a Alpha pal.

Overclocking is as easy as changing the bus speed in the bios for most motherboards. To bring the 1.6A to 2.4 or higher would require bus speeds greater than 133 mhz. Unless your mobo supports DDR 333 (166 mhz x2), I wouldn't recommend it. Most if not all motherboards can do an asynchronous bus speed for cpu and memory. But according to Tom's hardware, the limited memory bandwidth becomes a bottleneck for your extremely o/c cpu. I personally will wait until the 1.8A drops in September because I hope by then the new SIS chipset will come out (the one that supports Serial ATA, Firewire, USB 2.0, AGP 8x, and DDR 400). The current crop of mobos offer exactly the same features within the chipset as my mobo that is about 1 yr old.
