that is very low. Probably runs .800v after vdroop

ya that was while i was at 100 percent load i was incredibly shocked

 

[thirdshiftdj]

some guy wants to buy my quad for $170. I dont know if I should do it. I could pick up a q6700 that does 4ghz+ under water. I really don't want to go dual core

 

[NosBoost300]

170... thats almost brand new price! what a sucker! lol

 

[veedubfreak]

Not really a sucker. If you know you are getting a chip that overclocks well. Like mine, i could probably sell it for close to the price of a new q6600 just because it will do 3.6ghz. A lot of the newer q6600's clock like absolute crap.

 

[NosBoost300]

i havent been paying attention to new batches or anything at all, so i couldnt know..

have q6700's taken the same path?

 

[thirdshiftdj]

Veedub's right everyone seems be looking for an earlier G0 and are willing to pay next to new. I don't know if I even want to sell. Nos I know someone that selling a q6700 that benches 4ghz+ on water

 

[NosBoost300]

well i'm not shopping for a cpu for another 2 or 3 weeks... so i'm okay for the meantime

i may just save up for a used qx6850/9650

 

[thirdshiftdj]

dude I'm suprised at the prices people are selling their q9450's. Sometimes you'll come across one thats 225 but thats once in a great while. I've been searching around and everyone wants too much for it. I can see if it were a low VID. Microcenter has them for $260 and the 9550 for $300.

 

[NosBoost300]

i will not settle for a multi lower than 9... so... no 9550 or lower for me
