Title pretty much says it all. Processor is $217.99. If you use bing cashback you get 20% off + there is free shipping. Not quite as good as the Microcenter deal if you live near one but many of us don't.

i have never had a bad experience with ewiz/superbiiz.

Ordered the other day and my CC company wouldn't verify my shipping address.

Joyce called me right up and asked about that. I told her I'd call them back. Long story short the address was showing up when I called in, but not when a merchant did...she got us conferenced in and then had my graphics tablet sent to me right way

The bad experiences I believe are based on those trying to return used items and/or looking for technical support. When you order you agree to no technical support on the item through them.

Actully this is a better deal than the Microcenter one, least at the Overpark store. With tax there, it's $183.

That's a good point... for everyone outside of CA.

I've been on the fence about this one since the 10th. I finally pulled the trigger today. It was too good to pass up.

Show how? Just go to bing's shopping and use their link to SuperBiiz.

Just wanted to let everyone know. I got mine today and its e0 stepping if any overclockers here are concerned. I haven't installed it yet so i can't tell you how well it OC. I'll be happy with with my e8400 is running at now which is 3.6ghz.

True but there is only one big advantage of picking one up at Microcenter. YOU can check to make sure you get a e0 stepping if your picky or worried about that...but the proc i got was an e0 stepping anyways . I live about 3.5 hours away from a Microcenter so this was an easy decision for me.

FYI: I finally got it installed. I just decided to try to try (445 * 8.5) = 3.8ghz and this baby is rock solid stable (prime95). Only voltage increases i made was on the RAM (Supposed to run them at 2.0-2.1v and i'm running 2.0V). I am very happy with this purchase. Multitasking is silky smooth which is what i wanted since i'm a heavy multitasker. FYI these results are on an Asus P5Q pro. Hopefully you all have similiar results.

Wondering the same thing.

Good deal for a good chip, less than what I paid for my 9450 back in the day.
