Boy, am I glad I didn't order it lastnight from fticomputers.com! It was for a $189 at FTI computers and $210 at Newegg! I was hoping that it wouldn't be so expensive at newegg since I'd prefer to order from them since it seems to be such a good reliable company.

But lo and behold, I just checked, and the price of the OEM 1.33ghz CPU at Newegg.com has dropped to $189 as well!

There is only one thing I would like to know. What does "PGA" stand for? It says "PGA processor". I notice that at other sites that don't mention "PGA" for this same CPU, why is that? Is there supposed to be a difference?

PGA stands for "Pin Grid Array". It's just a designation on how the pins are aligned on the processor. All socket-a processors are PGA.

hmmmm...i wonder if it is worth the $40 to get this instead of 1.2GHz...anyone know the difference of overclocking between the two chips? I might just get my neighbor to handpick me a 9 week 1.33GHz AXIA Y :)
