Default GOOD GOD! Can you say price cuts?
AMD Athlon X2 4800+ = $289 & 3 day free shipping

I mean seriously... What an incredible deal. Imagine if you were a sucker and bought that CPU like 6 months ago for like $800. Wouldn't you kick yourself in the nuts?

I know, these price cuts are getting me excited as I plan on upgrading my rig by Christmas. I originally was planning on getting a X2 3800+ for $297 bucks. Hard to image I can get a 4800+ for 9 bucks cheaper now.

The General

Default
E6300 > 4800+ when not overclocking

E6300 > FX-62 when overclocking


So $189 > $290 when not overclocking and $189 > $890 when overclocking.
