Guys, I've been offered a good deal on one of these.The date code is 0329XPMW. I need to know if this is a good overclocker, or not.I need some good advice on this puppy before I spend the cash, on something that won't o.c. worth a crap!! All of your input would be greatly appreciated!!!

Like any new xp Tbreds coming out... this new stepping JIXHB has been reportedly getting pass 2.5-2.6 range on air. There's no doubting that there are possibilities that you won't get that same OC speed. However, there's no way of knowing unless you actually purchase that cpu and start cooking it to you desired speed. Having all the right stuff (sounds like the movie) to get there will depend on your rig's configuration and the amount of time you spend getting there. Don't let this cpu go by your way side, and then find out "could of, should of, or might of" done something with it, if only you bought it when you had the chance.

R.D. , I'll check with Him and see if he remembers where He got them,but I wouldn't count on it.He's one of those Guys that finds stuff on sale for a good price, and buys several of them just in case he needs them down the road for something.He stockpiles all kinds of puter parts like that.

R.D., I just talked with him on the phone.He can still get them, but won't give up his source.He says if anyone wants them, they have to go through me, and they're 100.00 plus shipping.I think thats kinda high, but He won't go any lower.Like I said in my original post, He gave me a deal on it because of our friendship.

Yeah, it's unfortunate. He'd probably be able to sell a good number of em here if he weren't out to make a killing.

Actually, he's not making a killing, he told me what they cost him.The only reason I got mine as low as I did was because his supplier gave him a special price on two of them awhile back. To be honest though, it doesn't matter to me if anyone wants them at that price, or not.It just saves me alot of hassles....makin sure he gets his money, and correct shipping info, making sure everyone gets what they paid for, in a timely manner, etc... It just relieves me of a lot of headaches!!

Then go get yourself one, or you can always try your luck on pricewatch.com, like I said originally.Enough, about it, somewhat ask about getting them, and i told you Guys what I found out.You don't want them, thats quite fine by me!!!!
