Good price, but don't know if it's a Palamino or a Tbred.

 

[Falloutboy]

man if i oculd be assured a tbred i'd be all over this

Shippin's $5.75-$7.50

So it's the same price or more as
Newegg $43 Free shipping
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduct.asp?catalog=343&DEPA=1&submit=property&mfrcode=0&propertycode=&propertycodevalue=4159,3896

Googlegear confirmed T-Bred $44
http://www.googlegear.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=80154 (But it's on back order for now)

So why gamble with less known companies?

The one at Googlegear should also be a Tbred B. The one I got was; I think the part number listed there means that it is a B.

Last I heard, Newegg is trying to get rid of their 'A' stock. Only repeat customers are getting the B's if they are lucky.

Are you sure about that?
I don't know how they could examine each order to find the repeat customers and then filter out all the XP CPU's and give them B's... sounds ludicrous to me.

I just got a tbred B from newegg and a B as well from googlegear.
Then again, I'm a repeat customer at both sites

How do you tell if yours is Palomino or thoroughbred? I've got a *sweet* 1700+ that I've got running at 2600+ (2.08Ghz) rock stable, so I can't complain either way

Buyxtremegear likes to ship you things you don't order. I specifically ordered a Sapphire Radeon 9700 card retail, they sent me the cheaper, and oem, Powercolor brand instead. Plus they charged me the price of the more expensive card (which they didn't send). And refused to credit me the difference, despite the fact they intentionally mailed the wrong card. (they claimed they were out of stock of the Sapphire so they sent me a Powercolor brand which I never ordered... idiots). They have did this to other people.

They rarely answer their phone, and don't answer emails.

I can only imagine what a nightmare it would be trying to return something.

T-Bred's will have AXDA1700 while Palomino's have just AX1700

 

[nwarawa]

I ordered one. Just got it today. Wouldn't you know it... it's a T-Bred B... exact stepping and date code that I paid extra for just two weeks earlier on my other 1700+

For those curious:

JIUHB0312MPMW

 

[hightechie]

Now it's $36

 

[omega99]

what voltage is that stepping?
DLT or DUT?
