I have one high end LGA 775 board and another high end AM2 board, so I'm hoping both will stick around for a while so I can part swap when necessary.The#1Spot wrote:
Meh not to long ago. What i am really waiting for is the new Amd processors coming late 2007 early 08. I wonder if amd scrapped the 939socket.
Last week. Btw did you see tee the price on the e4300? It's a beaut at 125$CommieChipmunk wrote:

how long ago did this happen, that's like 70 dollar drop on the e6600?

This is great, I was going to build a dual core but now I'll probably wait for prices to come down more & build a quad.
At stock speeds the 6300 is a fair bit faster. The 4300 is better for OCing on low end hardware due to its higher multiplier. The 6300 is better for OCing if you have better components. Get a 6320 or a 6420 if you can afford it.scottomus0 wrote:
the price for a e4300 here is £70!
is there a bif difference between that and the e6300? coz if theres not ill save myself £30.
I haven't done any OCing on the 6320 and 6420 chips, but if they OC as well as the 6300 and 6400 they will have higher FSB tolerances than the 6600 and 6700. Even with the lower multipliers on these CPUs, higher clocks can probably be achieved if using premium grade components than with a 6600 or 6700. The extra cache on the 6600 and 6700 does boost their speed a bit though and the 6320 and 6420 also have 4MB of cache onboard. If this affects the FSB tolerances on those CPUs then they are probably not such a good buy.scottomus0 wrote:

Holy crap. a Q6600 for 266? I can afford that! It's too bad I went AMD. I love AMD and all but i'd rather have a C2D or a C2Q than a Athlon 64 X2.CommieChipmunk wrote:
