Newegg.com has 2800+ procs IN STOCK!!

But check out the price on that baby! Sheesh!

I want one, but I don't want to give my left nut for it. I gave the right one away when I was buying Intel and I'd like to keep the other.

it will start dropping soon enough. and some of us will have to buy a new mboard to get all the oomph out of them babies also.

Newegg also has tbred 1700+'s and up in stock... 63 for the 1700+ and i bet with 1.85v's that sucker would run 1.9 or 2.0 gig with no sweat at all...

i seen on avg the 1700+s going to 1800mhz . problem with them is they are running to much voltage and way to much heat. i have seen one 1800+ t bred go to 2000mhz with 1.8 volts. so its possible




thats just me waiting in the corner for better things to come. i got my 1600+ and its doing fine over 1800mhz

Ok, even though I paid about $320 for the Athlon XP 2200+ when it came out, I predict that the new Athlon XP 2800+ will drop to $365 (not counting shipping or tax) before December 1st. Yes folks, you can count on that. Come January 6th, I predict the price will be close to $285. Any more predictions?

The tbreds default use less voltage than the palamino's do... And the rev B's use a little less than the rev a all the 1700+'s up to the 2200's right now are rev a cores... Once the revision B cores hit you going to see some awesome overclocks i have a feeling.

i have to agree with you there. then let the good old times begin once again. cheep prices with awesome overclocks

Wow, my kids are right.... I am a hopeless wuss... I can't get my XP2000+ very far past 1800 mhz.

2000+'s have never been real oc'ers.

even agoia and aroia -y 2000+'s won't do as much as the 1600+ badboyz.

That is because they all have the same stepping and top out around the same spot...

my still locked 2100 tops out on this mobo at about 1.9 - not that i'm complainin' about an $89 chip that does 1.9 agoia

HELL YEA ! i am sitting on my t-bird 1.4 can easily get to 1800, why put the bucks into a new one yet?

P.S. With an overclocked GF2 Ti and the t-bird up to 1700, i have uped my 3d mark scores by almost 1000 ! Waiting fer the

actually they don't top out around the same spot. 2000+ don't tend to go further than 1800mhz.

my 1600+'s run in uni mode and on a different mobo with real pci divisors (dually's tend to top out around 150+ except for the iwill, however there's major drive corruption from those as it has the same divisor. anything over 160 will cause corruption on a dually until higher divisors are around, but not likely until opteron) will hit 2000mhz. and if you ask why i don't run them uni mode, i will have to tell you that you don't know how much dually's pwn uni's ^_^
