Misprint_Confirmed: P4_1.7Ghz (Celeron 1.7Ghz) and ECS P4VXASD2+ for $79 at Fry's. BUT.....

[Bad Dude]

Sounds like a great deal to me. It's in today's LAtimes. It's a misprint, I went there and it's for the Celeron instead.
Combo SKU# 3502814

However, I saw the same board with the 2.0AGhz Box for $179.99. This one is confirmed good. But all the processors has been bought and returned. So I think it's dumping time for returned processors.
SKU# 3518894

Good luck.

[slunk]

Yeah, how's the motherboard, and when does this deal end?

You can call your local store and ask if they have that specific SKU in stock. I just called the one in Fremont, CA and they said there are 0 in stock, then I asked if the ad came out today, she said yes, then we shared a disappointed laugh. SHAAAADY...

I talked to them and they said it was a misprint... they sold a celeron 1.7 w/ board for $79 last weekend and it's that combo...

That would be VERY hot if you could get it to work. I haven't heard much about the mobo, but it does have the following features:

Integrated LAN
AC '97 sound
6-USB 2.0
Supports DDR or SDRAM
2-ATA133

Here is the ad for So Cal

It is a 1.7 Celeron OEM

 

[Sneezer]

Not a bad board. Not good for OC or anything like that. I bought this about 2 weeks ago when it was the 2.0 Celeron for $99, retail packaged with HSF. For the money it fits the bill. Has 2 PC133 and 2 DDR slots. Can only use one or the other, not both at the same time, obviously. The OEM deal does not include a HSF, so you need to factor in $10-20 for that.

The Dallas ad does show a 1.7 Celeron.

I want one of those

 

[Bad Dude]

I wonder if they would let me return the board and keep the chip?
