Decided to start a business?

Been here a while boss, and you really want to go there while you have a referal link posted, not to mention coupon codes?


Something about people in glass houses and stones...

*flame suit on*

Coupon codes apparently don't work for more than 1 item, unlike you who bought 20 without a coupon code... Referal link is to help the monarch rep that gives up those sweet deals dude that posts on Hardforum, we should really give him credit for it. So... stop bashing b4 this thread is locked too k?. That means you too modempower.

Thank you for not flaming this thread anymore


But if you do, oh by all means I got the water :laugh:

 

[Fallengod]

To be honest it shouldnt be to hard to find one for that price in the FST forum. In fact ive seen 2 sell for $260 or below recently.

My Opteron 165 package arrived today... shockingly, the Fedex package was empty.
File a claim with Fedex, called Monarch... will see how it goes... hope it doesn't happen to anyone else.

 

[aggressor]

Wow, that's pretty shady. Hopefully you get it sorted out

If you were wondering why Opterons were so high in price and so scarce...read on

Sun today said that the Mexican Ministry of Education has agreed to purchase to buy more than 27,000 AMD Opteron-based workstations over a period of five years. The deal is valued at $400 million and is the largest for Sun in Latin America to date.
The Ministry of Education said it plans to install the systems in fifth- and six-grade classrooms in Mexico's national public school system.

If only 27,000 cpus sets AMD that far back with production, they really are in trouble. With 5,000 200mm wafers coming out of fab30 per week, they should be able to make these by noon.

Fifth and six graders getting opterons...

 

[yourdeardaniel]

that's unbelievable, 5th and 6th graders using programs that require dual core? lol
my school doesn't even have dual score, they have athlon 64 or athlon xp

 

[JknowWhat]

We're still using P4's and Macs at my school...

Stepping: CCBWE 0551UPMW

ordered last Thursday (Feb 23)

 

[Fallengod]

My last 165 was 0551UPMW as well.

Also for a little update. The monarch rep hinted at another 165 discount code pretty soon for anyone that cares.

 

[greenwar]

Oh I care very much. I am actively looking for an Opteron dual core.

 

[mroverclocker]

i got a ccbwe 0551upmw too...FREAKING AWESOME CHIP..2.6 stock volts. Im happy. Memory limiting me I bet it can go 2.7-2.8 Tried dividers no luck. Haven't even bump voltage past 1.35 with dividers. I dont feel like tweaking it further because i know my memory maxes out at 288fsb. Lets hope everyones 0551upmw does the same or better.

 

[randomlinh]

i want a dual core opt

 

[rch4001]

I got a ccbwe 0551upmw too. haven't tested yet

Better not be more than $60 or I'll be mad.

My 165 is being delivered today so we'll see what the steppings I get. Ordered on 2/23

Update: CCBWE 0551UPMW is what I received today. Heard good thing from the posters above so we will see.

 

[woodman1999]

I'll let you know how it turns out, once I get everything together...

 

[Fallengod]

As the rep hinted at. Monarch now as new valid coupon codes starting today. They end with 100 uses or on 3/6/06.

165 $60 off is alive again, as well as the rest. I am unable to post the codes so youll have to pm for them.

Also they added a Fx-55 retailbox $150 off coupon. Although I dont know anyone who would buy one... but hey.

 

[harbin]

Holy. Got to have one!

 

[caboob]

After a night of testing, got mine (CCBWE 0551 UPMW) to 2.7 @1.38V game stable. I really have to start feeding volts to get to 2.8 though. Now going to find Prime stability.
