Newegg has S939 AMD64 3000+ Winchester

[assemblage]

Newegg has S939 AMD64 3000+ Winchester. I know they had it listed, but then it disappeared I think. It's back on their site with some a 3200+ Newcastle. Link. Sorry if this is a repost.

Newcastle core? must be another one of Newegg's messups...

 

[The Coolest]

Yeah, that's looking genuine! I guess you should start jumping onto those while they're still availble and are not too expensive

 

[dreIU]

Why are the prices supposed to go up?

 

[Shade00]

Now is definitely not the time to buy. Prices will fall quite a bit once these become more widely available.

There is supposed to be a price drop in the 15th.

Very messed up not only is the 3000+ called a Newcastle but the 3200+ Winchester is called a 3000+ Newcastle!

When I posted, it was listed as a Winchester and the 3200 was listed as a Newcastle.

 

[noxipoo]

did these jump up in price since they were last available?

The 3000+ started out at ~169 I think, then newegg changed to 175 and now it looks as though they are 190. Nothing like making an extra 20 bucks per proc.

i agree, for me the time will come when pcie- x800 is available for $350 or so (and even i promissed to never buy a single piece of hw higher than $250 but ohh well) and also there is either a DFI/Abit Good NF4 Mobo with soundstorm2 (might replace my audigy 2). Not to mention that there will be better steppings of the a64 3000 winchester by then

my best guess tells me february will be the time to buy...
