Nice price. Although, all EE's are 30 cappers from what I know.

That's a Pretty Fair Price, but I wish It was Under a Warranty.

Hmmmmmmm..............Wonder Why They're Not?

I'd Buy One, But I've Already Spent WAY too much on Chips ATM and I need to build another Cascade for the ones I have!;)

hahaha

did you see the other items he is selling

he has an ES unlocked. says stable from 1.6 to 3.4 pretty sweet, and only like 250

but i'd rather play around with more power like the EE......or a EE ES!!!

edit: I see you cant take any constructive criticism. Nice price on those chips tho. Iono about buying without warranty though.

OH god, not another AMD64 fanboy. Look, A64 was and still is the biggest piece of crap to ever come from AMD.

The intel mobos are still better, and they are really solid, but if you're just going for sheer performance, I would go A64.

Unless some bh-5, an A64, and a good mobo is worth less than one of those chips to you.


Any reason to crap up an otherwise informative thread with the age old Intel VS AMD arguement?



I'm going to buy an EE, just a matter of when, soon as I find one cheap enough it will be in my IC7-G, these are getting close, and even though some of the AMD chips might be faster, they won't fit in my IC7-G :eek:

OK, pick the AMD64 system you want to pair my system up against..
