[TheReds]

Doesn't really show anything. I can make a website...list 30 processors that are yet to be tested and you'd think "they're coming".

Plus, AM2 is nothing to be hyped about. It's just a socket 939 with a new memory controller. Nothing more.

a very tempting price to bring people to AM2

[dave_graham]

i have all the pricing on AM2 processors already. i've got the order dates set and a PO already submitted. big deal. they're under embargo until June anyway, so....lotta good it's going to do you now.

[Jort]

[|3ourne]

neat , i wouldnt mind getting a sempron. but we need to wait and see wht mobos are coming out. We are seeing proc tests and stuff but no real world news about motherboards.

I think the 1st 5 are retail BOX and the 2nd 5 are OEM cpu.

lol, then whats the point of getting oem,

it costs more,
no hsu
no warranty with amd.

Yep, that's the reason I asked. :thumbsup:

They must be something else, or prices need to settle....
Maybe low voltage versions?

[cky2k6]

hopefully its the low power versions. actually, it makes sense that theyre the low power versions cause amd stopped selling oem processors, at least officially.

[Repoman]

Current 939 OEM's are more expensive than retail box.. only reason to buy is if you know it's gonna be a good stepping, or you get a coupon like monarch does

[Tonucci]

Excuse my noobness, but these AM2 semprons are dual-channel ?

[Piotrsama]

Not a bad question.
S939 Semprons DO have support for Dual channel, so AM2 Semprons probably will have support also.

Hmm i didnt knew that there are skt 939 semprons, i tought they were on skt 754 only, am i missing something ? Now these am2 semps prices look very tempting, am2 mobos may cost more than skt 754 ones, but at the same time ddr2 is cheaper than ddr1. Tnx for answersing btw

maybe OEM (tray) CPus cost more in the USA but overhere a Tray CPu is cheaper then a boxed one.

by how much depends on the CPU the more expensive the CPu the bigger the difrence.
Example:
a X2 3800+ tray is 38 euro cheaper then the boxed.


about half a year ago overhere OEMs were also more expensive then BOX but last few months it has changed.



@Tonucci
dunno if it has changed but asfar as i know socket 939 Smeprons are only used by the larger OEMs and arent sold in stores (ul only fidn em in HP PCs etc)

[[cTx]Philosophy]

I wanna see some better performance from them befors I get on the wagon..
m not all that impressed from them as of yet..

[Cobalt]

Maybe they got the part codes mixed up so all the OEMs were listed as BOX

[Mowgli]

well...juz signs dat AMD wana compete with conroe ASAP imo...
