I haven't used DCS in eons so they could have turned to crud, but a few years ago they were ok.
i'm from uk also and this will be the first chip i won't pre-order till prices drop. they are supposed to be only $580, right now that is £317, add on 50 for vat and that makes it £380 or so inc vat for the 4400+, its £100 overpriced right now for no apparent reason. First place in whole of europe i saw with it pre-ordered is a place in norway i think with these exact prices. that shop also had the first 3700+ pre-order in europe and at £290, its now £235 or so there inline with the rest of the world. I'm hoping, very much so, that places have simply taken these prices for now but will change when they are available. trust me, a LOTTA stores base pricing simply by checking other sites and making the price very similar and they aren't always right.
Remember taht VAT in Norway is 25%!! :slapass:
X2 can be pre-ordered many places in Norway, but it's expensive!
Whoa 25%! And I thought 17.5% here in the UK was bad :(
this is nice so we can have just one thread for ppl looking for athlon x2
exactly :DQuote:

IF so, the 4400 would be 2x SanDiego 3700+ which is sechs, i want it
yeah, they're bad. They flat out lie about having Venice core to attract orders. It turns out that they didn't have it for another 2 weeksQuote:

But Monarch actually posted the preorder for the venice and san diego last time tho :)Quote:

At any rate, since I now have San Diego it looks like I won't be going dual-core for some time, probably not until after Christmas.
mysterybyte 4200+ is down (didnt check the others)
I'm not sure I would place an order with a company with "Mystery" in it's title.
Just Annoying !!!!! ALL Canadian retailers charging $800+ for 4200+ dual core when retail price is supposed to be $660 based on US TO CAN Currency Exchange :( :upset:Quote:
