Opteron 165 - $263 shipped @ Monarch, no coupons


I know new AMD prices are supposed to be coming out soon, but this still seems like a good deal for the "real good right now" crowd, and I had heard speculation that the Opteron prices wouldn't be dropping along with the X2's, anyway. Know clue is that's actually a valid statement or just speculation, but here's the link for the Opty's at Monarch Computer:

http://www.monarchcomputer.com/Merch...ct_Code=120339

$260.97 + $1.99 FedEx Ground.

If I didn't have a honeymoon just around the bend, I'd sure like another one to stick in the fiancee's rig. But such is life ...

My Wife asked me last night what I wanted for my Birthday. I told her a PDA, but I may reconsider now. This is GREAT. Thanks for the heads up.

It's not that great of a deal IMO. With the Monarch coupons, the price for an Opteron 165 has been hovering around $270 for a few weeks now. Given the prospect of $180 X2's in the near future, I'll be waiting.

its been around $270 for A LONG time (months)... Just before, you had to enter a code.

I am not saying its not a hot deal, because it is, its just that its not that new... I have bought three of them from monarch in the past 4 months

yup, the opty 165 has been in the 270 range for awhile now. good to see its value not going down as fast.

I doubt it... I think that would be a loss for monarch, and they are not in the business of taking losses...
