anyone gotten a 3000+ venice yet? I want to see how you guys do before I decide on 3200 or 3000 once and for all and plunge into 64 bit.

No one has (in the US at least) - it just shipped out from the factory according to MonarchJoe. I ordered the 3200 and will post o/c results.

A couple of more days...

FINALLY!! Just preordered mine from monarch. Too bad I have to wait like 2 weeks for my motherboard repair though.

yeah I know there's some international people that have them already...but it seems like its the 3500+ and 3800+ so far. Still waiting to see if things go as well for the 3000+.

monarchcomputer.com does and they're quite reputable. I don't think you'll be able to get the first batch of venice cores though. Shoot them an email and see what they say though.

 

[kickit]

thanks for your answer i'm gonna try to catch them via mail

Yeah, I ordered one from that retailer on Sun. morning and they evidently had already run out of stock. PCHardware4U.com called me on Mon. said they wouldn't have any back in for awhile so I just cancelled. No one wanted to risk ordering from this place cause of their ratings, but glad I gambled.... just missed a lil short.

I ordered a DFI NF4 Ultra and Venice 3000+ bundle from Monarch, so we'll see how that goes. You can be sure to see a nice big thread with my overclocking gamut. Right now, it's just the waiting game.

 

[Koyanisquatsi]

At least you'll know yours will work as I think Monarch pretests their bundles. I still can't get a response from Abit wether my board will post with a rev e chip.

 

[chirodoc459]

I can't help but wonder if some of the stores may have the 3000's earlier and are waiting putting up the more expensive chips to get more sales in that area. Why would a store as horrible, lol, as pchardware4u be able to sell a 3000 venice ahead of Monarch? If I were in the money making business I would probable do the same thing. Everyone was saying there was no way anyone would sell one before Monarch.... it's officially been done.

 

[Koyanisquatsi]

If you look at the pics of it that he posted you can tell it was an amd sample chip. They probably sold him their only one.

 

[chirodoc459]

The sales rep I spoke to, Mike, said they had a handful of them=more than one. If you only have one chip why waste the time of putting it on your website. After they sold out they pulled the chip # completely off their site. Can't really believer those guys though. Can't wait to see this guys results.

 

[Koyanisquatsi]

Check out his results so far with that 3000+

Neato... 1 on order

I was going to get the 3200+, the 3500+ is a good bit more money but I know my components now and if this chip happens to want to go real fast, it'll be a lot easier to accommodate than the 3200+ will...

Plus I'll likely get it a lot sooner

 

[chirodoc459]

WEWT... The egg has never done me wrong. Sooner and cheaper than Monarch.

 

[bwall04]

Cheaper eh? The last time I checked, numbers appearing the same were.......the same. $272 with free shipping at each site. Maybe I'm missing something............

 

[brentpresley]

Well, it's about a $100 more than I wanted to spend, but I'm tired of seeing all my components lying around on the floor waiting on the chip. 3500 here I come.

 

[Leper Messiah]

updated with the newegg stuff. Did I miss anything else?

Monarch's expresssaver shipping is 8$, Neweggs is free. With living in Ga I also pay another 10$ or so in taxes... so it's another incentive for me.

Update time!

Shipment has been confirmed, and as stated we will see the processors on Thursday and Friday. We are hoping to see some of the cpus come in today, but that has not been confirmed. Once I hear word that we receive any cpus, I will update on here. (FYI, I'm 99% sure the 3500s will be here tomorrow)

You may see some other stores get these cpus in prior to us, based solely on geography. Unfortunately, whereas we requested Priority Overnight, all cpus ended up being shipped ground from California. California to say, California, ground, is much quicker than ground to us here in Georgia.

With this being said, I do hope that you decide to keep your orders with us. If you decide to, please pm me here or email joef@monarchcomputer.com with your order number and I will take care of upgrading your shipping for you at no additional cost.
