what would be a decent cpu to hold me over till venice?

[stevedub]

I would really like to get the venice core cpu, but I'm not sure if I can wait any longer. I have everything else I need for my first build, and I think I may have to get somthing to hold me over

 

[DJ-CHRIS]

Is two weeks really that long?

 

[stevedub]

You think I will be able to get a 3200 in two weeks?

Get a 3000+ processor from Best Buy or whatever (big store) u have in ur area and return it in 2 weeks . I know I know. It's bad "consumer behaviour". Oh well. They charge $$ out of ur ass for a reason. Good "Customer service". Take advantage of it. It's not like u are stealing music from online. This is legitimate. I think..

Well I've given instructions to someone on how to RMA a board you blatently fried So I think your idea isn't so bad chankama lol, buuuuuuuuut I wouldn't even bother, just wait for venice

 

[dhw200]

Wait for the venice. u wont be disappointed, and in the end, ull be glad.

Im having the same problem.. I think Im just going to go with the winchester 3200 as its the only thing in my pricerange at the moment.. But how I want that venice..

 

[xenosoul]

I dont know if best buy will let you return processors.. They always make a big deal out of anything I try to return.

 

[senseless]

The winchester 3200 will not let you down.

Meh.. In Futureshop (in Canada) they don't ask u anything .. Unconditional returns within 30 days. Best Buy recently bought out Future shop.. So it's the same management ..
