In case they take it down,

532 AUD = 346 USD!
They have a ~10% markup for the 9950 BE, so I suppose 310USD or so is US retail MSRP. However to be safe, let's assume 350USD. :)
It's more expensive than the i7 920, but this is still a 3Ghz CPU. It'll still be faster in dual threaded games and whatnot. It's still MUCH cheaper than that alien Q9650 (same clock).
Thanks for the news man :up: .These prices indicate 3Ghz PII should be quite competitive with i920(which truth be told rarely sits at 2.66Ghz and most of the time "turbos" up).Quote:

Maybe the price of a940 will fall after the launch,i can smell the price war looming.
I expected 400$ so this is good news. :up:
BTW: They ship AMD chips in intel boxes. :)
Compared to i7 i expect lower power consumption at stock and similar fun with overclocking/benching.
Whoa, nice find man!
Im willing to pay that price though.
I'd rather have Phenom II 940 for that price than i7 920 + X58 + 6GB TC kit, a lot more money into that:p:
Im looking only 5 times a day over various shops in here to see if they got it on pre-order yet. But thus far nothing yet.
[EDIT]
Besides that, this one comes with unlocked multiplier, i7 920 doesnt;)
Everytime I see that I immediately think of the pentium 2 and read it as a 3GHz pentium 2 :ROTF:Quote:

Well i was joking as you can see from the smiley :p: .I really don't know what kind of a short name we should give to new 45nm AMD chip.It has to be something cool tho :)
I dont understand all this diffrent money stuff so how much is this going to be in USD,
Macadamia gave a rough estimate:Quote:

[edit]
"the smarter choice" :p:
and thats for the high end one ,wow thats is cheap
Phenom II will be in my book as phoenix
Looks like the ATI boys are pushing pricing strategy at AMD... :rolleyes:
Looks like ATI 4870 all over again. We all benefit. :up:
it's their top product, though temporary. give em some slack, they could use the money. besides, i like this pricing.Quote:

LOL HAHAHAHA yeah having a marketing strategy of "we could use the money" is gonna appease the shareholdersQuote:

yeah i know, injecting honesty into the system would eff everything up.Quote:

Guys our dollar is woeful, import fees have never been this high as few banks are willing to ensure the goods and we generally have 10% more on goods after converting the price from USD, I would say DON'T bother with this kind of guess work. We had the 920 i7 for 900 at pre orders.
where do this guys come from???Quote:

Which would equate to £184.00 GBP, but we have to add VAT on top, which has just been reduced here to 15%, so it would come to a total then of £211.60 or roughly $345.00 USD.
At the current price of $346.00 = £212 GBP + 15% VAT = £243.80 GBP or aprrox. $397.70 ($400) which is really expensive in my book.
But guess time will tell...???
Pre-order usually comes out costing a lot more.Quote:

Remember guys you can't do direct conversions, heck it doesn't give very good round figures at times either. I'd wait on the USD prices until we hear directly what they are not some attempts at converting from one currency to another as it doesn't work that way.

kaz, you remeber the guy i mentioned in a previous post who is over at Dabs.com?Quote:

that will get my money if it hits on time, although he also mentioned that he isnt holding out hope of seeing them this side of Xmas, but hey whats new?
Thats rally good news, if they are going to be available for under £200 inc. VAT, then I'll be prepared to go to that price, but not much more than that...!!Quote:

I don't think its likley I'd be able to get one before Xmas now anyway, if they had released this month, then maybe I would have, but even if they do become available in Dec then it'll have to wait until mid-end of Jan before I'll be able to get one, what with Xmas expenses and all....
I need to get a new 1TB HDD first, and also maybe a bigger PSU, I'd like to get a new Router as well, as my 54g router isn't up to the task of streaming video to the bedroom and lving room PC's, and it only has 2 LAN ports (100Mbs) one of which is used for the main PC connection otherwise I'd think about using some LAN cable for the time being, as it would be cheaper to get 2 x 30+ metre Cat6 LAN Cables, than a new router, but there's not enough ports on it....:(:(
So much to get and only so much money to do it with...LOL...!!!
Next up I think I'll get the 1TB HDD, and maybe 1 x 30Metre LAN Cable, I'll move all my media then onto the 1TB HDD and put it into the Living room PC and just use a LAN Cable for the bedroom PC, that should take care f the video steaming problems...
Then it'll be a case of trying to get the PhenII when it comes out, hopefully in January, if my budget allows it.... and if prices are OK..!!
Yes!
Phenom II 940 and 920 both available for pre-order at my place!
Costs are 226 and 266 Euro, a lot less than I would have expected:up: And of course, ordering it right now;)

Which shop?Quote:

Here: http://www.salland.eu/
Go to pc onderdelen>processoren
I hope Dabs do it for just under £200.
I can get discounts over there so I might be tempted to pre-order one when they are listed. I was going to use my 9850 for a few months more but if I can pick up the latest Phenom for around £180 then I'd be happy to upgrade straight away.
Diekul / Rammsteiner could one of you please translate me the shipping conditions of that shop when it comes to delivering in a foreign country? Since theres no german shop yet I want to be prepared ... ;) thanks!
Aye, that's the one:up:Quote:

They'll ship your order as soon as you agreed on the total price (product(s) + shipping costs) and as soon as your payment arrived (and is in stock of course). If you've somehow a BTW (Dutch VAT) number you can use that so prices will drop 19%.
Maybe you want to look here, but Im not sure whether they actually will or will not ship to Hungary. There's an email link attached in that link so you can ask for further questions, in English of course:p:
He is german. I'm the hungarian. :DQuote:

:)Quote:

A little bit tight. :D
Thanks for your effort ;) I'll keep that shop in mind in case theres nothing to get here, though it's a little uncomfortable.Quote:

As I've said the S-clip designed for TRU (and for some other earlier modells). The TRUE has four more heatpipes with different arrangement. You'll see it, be prepared. :DQuote:

Well, whatever language someone sweares in, Im mostly wondering why a price drop to thus far 265$ would be a bad thing to swear about:confused:
Ive an order running at 266Euro, which seems to be thus far overpriced. Not that I care but still:rolleyes:
What is wrong with that price? Unlocked multiplier, topnotch clocking yields, improved performance... I dont get it:shrug:
Just remember the HD 4850 and 4870 starting prices. :)Quote:
