Sounds good. I keep getting miffed seeing price differences between the US and Europe. We pay 170 euro's for a e8400. That's roughly 240-250$.

Thank your government(s) for imposing import/tariff/VAT on you.

Don't blame the companies who are trying to enable their employees and shareholders to make a living.

So this is basically a rebranded e8400 right?

Would it work fine in a Gigabyte p35-ds3l?

Also, do the Xeons overclock as well as the C2D?

Tempting... thanks for the heads-up Mr Fox, and plz, nobody post it in Hot Deals until I order.

EDIT: Dang, not eligible for that 5% coupon... I think I used it on an Antec case/PSU deal couple weeks ago. Gonna look around to see if another coupon exists.

EDIT2: Okay, CPU ordered at $200 shipped. Thanks, OP.

From another thread, the CPU ID string is the same as an E8400 (from information from Intel's site), so it should (YMMV) work fine.

Theoretically, Xeons with Core2 Equivalents are just higher binned for more durability for server enviroments. I want one, but I know I should save my money and wait for a Q9450...

Very Good !! Very Good !! Excellent !! They should be easy 4 Gig + Kinda Chips !!


My X3060 was a 1+ Gig overclock easy, and would post at 4 Gigs It would run 3.8 but I left it at 3.6 P5WDH kinda held it back.

Are there any good boards that I can put two of these on? I'd like to have a least one PCI E 2.0 video card - the more slots the better though as I might want to put two video cards and I'm sure they'll take up a lot of space. I was considering a Q9550 - but this might give me better performance - not sure. I do not plan to OC.

Thanks!

Why does it say socket 771 on their description?

EDIT: Nevermind, I found a slightly different chip from their search engine.

EDIT2: OOS :(

This might be what I'm looking for but I don't know if the E3110 will work with this, I don't know if how it compares in performance to a single quad processor at the same clock rate.

yes, make sure to get the 775 version. and the 5% coupon worked for me this morning. I don't know if it was a different one though. I found a link to mine at slickdeals.net

EDIT: Yep, they're gone. It made the "what's shakin'" list, so a bunch of people must have realized this. It's being discussed over at slickdeals too. Not sure who else has this chip, but I sure am glad I pulled the trigger this morning...

I'm looking more for lower temps. Current gaming rig is in an X-Qpack2 which is space-limited for heatsinks. Current CPU is an E4500 at around 3.06GHz. Any higher and it overheats, but on same board outside the case it can do around 3.2-3.3GHz due to lower temps. Board is Asus P5K-VM, BTW. So, lower temps + 3x cache = mo' betta'?

I must have been psychic because I ordered at 1pm, and 5pm found a buyer for the E4500 who approached me asking if I had a spare CPU. :D

Me too!

I made up my mind. I'm getting both! (I put in my order for my Xeon 3110 earlier today).

LOL. I didn't and missed the cheaper Buy.com price. I've held out this long, I can hold out a little longer, I think...er....well... :eek:

Damn tempting, nonetheless. Maybe I need to build two rigs! :Q
