Pentium E2140 & E2160 are dual core processors based on Allendale core
Celeron 430 & 440 are single core processors based on Core 2 microarchitecture

wow! 163 wow a 6320 with the same cache as all the others that can be OCed so easily!

and the 4300 for 113!!! it has a 9x multiplier for some serious squat!! thatll be the ultimate budget build CPU

$530 for the quad, woot!

And there making the Core 2 Duo's go so low now, but I guess thats why they changed the name to Pentium so they dont run the Core 2 Duo name

I mean 1.6Ghz, 800Mhz FSB, and 1MB of L2 Cache??

yeah but they have high multipliers for awesome OCs. i mean how high do you think a e4300 could go?

why are they dropping the 6300 and 6400 line? and do you think any other prices in the PC building world will drop cause of this?

This looks good, making my own computer seems like a better idea now. Don't know if I want to spend all my money though

it is much more than worth it, with this prices by beginning of summer who knows, you can probably get a C2D build for under 1k with dx10 that can run any game out. it is much more than worth it.

i am building a new computer at my moms after the april 22 price cut. i cant wait!! (we have a 6 year old dell, can even run age of empires. its sad)

joeswm8 · 02-01-2007, 11:05 PM

The_Beast · 02-01-2007, 11:05 PM

joeswm8 · 02-01-2007, 11:07 PM
