Ha! That has got to be the funniest thing on ebay that i have ever seen. I wonder if that guy was serious or just trying to make an extra buck off some poor guy?
 
He could also know what he's doing and hoping that someone will actually believe it and buy it.
 
if you go to attack of the show on g4tv.com they have this thing called it came from ebay where they have all kinds of stupid stuff like that.
 
(WARNING: MAY THIS POST MAY CAUSE SOME EXTENSIVE LAUGHING AT ME BUT I WOULD APPRECIATE IT IF YOU DIDN'T) I am a noob! I am guessing you can't overclock a cpu then take it out and put it in another computer and use it overclocked, or you just can't overclock a dual core? I AM NOOB DANG IT!

The ebay offer is a mobo/cpu combo, so the overclock would remain. What is absolutely hilarious is his maths.

i believe hes selling it with the motherboard, so then it will be overclocked when he ships it.

But hes still a noob. And he says that its guarenteed to run at 6.8Ghz (3.4Ghz x2), lol

When you overclock a CPU, your changing information in the motherboard's bios. So if you keep the cpu and motherboard together, the overclock will remain.

Saying that his setup runs at 6.8Ghz because it is a dual core processor running at 3.4Ghz x2. It just doesn't work that way. The dual core processor is still only rated at 3.4Ghz.
 
It's just 2 cores, not two seperate clock speeds. You're still going to have the processing power of 3.4GHz, but with twice the cache rating because of the extra core. So yes it's faster, but now GHz wise, and definetly not 2X the rated speed.
 
What pisses me off about these people isnt that they're noobs, but that they're scammers AND noobs... which leaves the way for bigger noobs to fall for they're noobish scams... lol

I know what SLI and dual core are, but is dual core like SLI? You don't get 2x processing power for either, right?

i think SLI almost doubles the piplines and speeds, but the memory doesnt increase.
