I like the 3.2GHz X2... With ACC, you never know whether you're buying a 2, 3, or 4 core CPU. MHz matters if it is potentially unlockable :)

Dunno...out of those I'd probably go with the x3. That way you're guaranteed three good cores, getting it to 3.2GHz ought to be no problem, and the fourth core still might unlock. I guess anyone considering this would want to check out unlock success rates between the two.

Anyway yeah these are hot deals even if the mobo isn't very highend it's better than ECS or whatever other ultra lowend stuff they usually have.

I would definitely get the 555 probably going to be a trike and maybe a quad.. .and who wants to overclcok to 3.2GHz when you can have it stock and overclock to 4.5GHz for wprime 1024 under water :)

But the 720 and the 555 are the same price, so why not get that? This was just what I needed, but of course they are already out of stock.

Title needs to be changed since it is not a cyber deal :) [B&M]

Actually, my vote goes for having a B&M deals thread, since technically these aren't cyber deals. I for one get tired of checking threads only to find they are in-store only.
