Do I have a faulty memory or have they been selling for $190?

You'll never be able to fool yourself...you know the truth. The truth that the bunnies have been slowy wiped from the face of THGC...the truth that King Bunny is a maniacal tyrant not worthy of loyalty. You can try to keep up the facade, but it will eventually crumble like the Berlin wall... :evil:

Fry's has the 3200 retail boxed with ecs kt800 pro board for $170 this weekend. The board even has some overclocking settings.

No wonder the board is only $18

$18 for a board isn't a bad deal. I use an ecs board with built in video and raid, and it works fine. 2 of my family members use the old k7s5a. It's all they need for surfing the net. I may get the Fry's combo deal after I pay my property taxes next week.

AMD dropped prices ~10-20% (vary by model) and dropped the 2800+/3000+ so the 3200 is the new low end for the A64 line (exc Sempron of course).

My old ECS K7S5A is still running. I have it at work now but it's a good board.

I have two problems with ECS. First off, they charge for every rma, whether they accept it or not. They will keep your money, but refuse the rma, if the board has so much as a scratch on it.
The second is that some of the crap they sold to oems is a major part of why amd had such a bad rep for instability.
The K7S5a is the exception. Mostly because of the chipset, but it was a great board. I still have mine. If I run across a good deal on a chip for it, I may even replace the blown caps.

Spitfire_x86 · Oct 30, 2005

K7S5A was the exception? In the K7S5A days, the motherboard forum had too many "K7S5A problem" threads

I bought the combo yesterday, and installed it this morning. At first it posted at 240, but I gave up on a stable overclock. Not enough voltage settings. You also have to set the command rate to 2t when running 4 sticks of memory, or it won't post. But the board runs fine otherwise. Not a bad deal if you don't overclock. And it recognized the venice core without any problems.

What happened to drop those prices?

Opteron 144 939

Rugger · Oct 30, 2005

IC...no I don't why would Opteron in s939 drop the A64 line prices?

Opteron 144 = 1.8GHz 1mb L2 for <A HREF="http://www.tankguys.biz/opteron-cache-socket-p-1419.html" target="_new">$152</A> = $40 cheaper than 3200+ with much higher OC potential (<A HREF="http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=75211" target="_new">link</A>). (then there is also the stellar $210 OC'er to take into account - the "Opterpwn" 146)

Why wouldn't they lower the price of the 3200+ to keep it as a viable purchase option?
