nOcLuE98 Biohazardous Messages 1,673 Jan 18, 2008 #24 cool, I am looking at new ones. I want to sell mine for 100, and pick up a new x38 and an 8400. I love new cpu releases.

I Invisible MetalHead Techie Messages 2,912 Location Minnesota Jan 18, 2008 #26 theres not gonna be a big overclock difference between the DS3R and an expensive x38
veedubfreak Golden Master Messages 6,979 Jan 19, 2008 #27 Only reason to go x38 right now is if you plan to crossfire, for the x16/x16 vs x16/x4 on p35 boards.
