It is retail no less (Meaning full 3 year warranty and HSF (Heatsink and Fan)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is retail no less (Meaning full 3 year warranty and HSF (Heatsink and Fan)) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I ended up getting it for $146 zero. Not sure if they were doing updates to their website (zipzoomfly). But, I saw the price at $147, $149 & $146. Decided to just go ahead and buy it at 146.

General J November 30, 2004 Share General J Member November 30, 2004 Yeah. I'm gonna be keeping an eye out for one. See where I can get the best deal on a good board. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> So does the 64 bit chips actually perform better than, say, a regular Athlon XP chip even though there aren't really any 64 bit programs out? My 2600+ runs most everything just fine. Just out of curiousity though, how much of a performance gain would I see with this chip vs. my chip? Also running 1gb ram, and a 9600xt. Would I gain any performance out of the 9600? Or is it probably not held back by my 2600+? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is because the Memory controller is on the actual CPU versus other cpu's which have the memory controller on the motherboard. This makes latency almost non existant which hugely boosts performance in games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunk December 2, 2004 Author Share Lunk Member December 2, 2004 Got my AMD64 3000+ Time to start looking for a good mobo to pair it up with. May be some time before I gather everything I need to get this new system up and running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
