ASUS 9600GSO $29.50! after MIR and Promo Code - Page 2

mosheen · Jul 10, 2009, 03:55 PM

Here a 9600GSO 512mb sells for $130.

hat · Jul 12, 2009, 09:19 AM

It is estimated to be delivered on the 14th

Now, depending on how much money I have after everything's said and done (I plan on selling WAW, the $20 rebate, and I might get $20 from somewhere else, and a gpu I'm going to sell) I migt get a 7750BE or something along that price

hat · Jul 12, 2009, 02:25 PM

Just ordered a 7750BE to go with it. I think that should hold for a few years... heh

newtekie1 · Jul 12, 2009, 02:57 PM

Your ditching the Semprong...NOT THE SEMPRON...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

But seriously, why not save up the extra $20 and go with the X2 250?

hat · Jul 12, 2009, 03:03 PM

Because to me, the x2 250 offers nothing that the 7750BE doesn't already have.

I'll have a nice little F/S thread going in a week or so... I want to sell a 6800XT agp, this sempron after I replace it with the 7750, and a game..

check out my system specs... lol (notice the name)

I don't see why you think that because it even beats the 7850 in everything?

hat · Jul 12, 2009, 06:38 PM

I'm sure it does. Maybe by a few FPS in gaming. The 7750 will probably hit 3GHz on stock voltage which will be more than fast enough... my current sempron would be if it wasn't single core

boomstik360 · Jul 12, 2009, 06:41 PM

And the Athlon will probly hit 3.4 on stock maybe more? Yeah a few more FPS in gaming and a lot faster and everything else besides gaming. I am just saying, it is more future proof too since it is AM3, it runs faster, and it runs cooler.. Oh well.

hat · Jul 12, 2009, 06:50 PM

Yeah I forgot about that... I don't have an AM3 board. I know AM2+ is supposed to be compatable with AM3, but AM2+ was supposed to be compatable with AM2, and when I tried running a Phenom 9500 in an AM2 board (with phenom bios update) I had problems.

boomstik360 · Jul 12, 2009, 06:57 PM

Hmm, well I have ran and know plenty of people who run AM3 cpu's on AM2+ boards. Well either way man you will be happy with your upgrade I am sure. Good luck with the build and let us know how high you can clock it

hat · Jul 12, 2009, 08:02 PM

Yeah, I just wish I ordered it 2 days ago along with the 9600 :/ ah well, I will get it all in this week that's for sure. I don't really plan on taking it past 3... I had a terrible experiance with a Phenom 9500 with this same motherboard (not same exact board, same model). 1.375v fried the board, cpu and my 9800gt, so I'm weary of pushing it too hard. It says voltage 1.05v-1.325v... last time I ordered a processor with a voltage range I got lucky and got the lowest voltage. I'll be estatic if I get a 1.05v model... that's damn low even for deliberate undervolting

boomstik360 · Jul 12, 2009, 08:15 PM

Do you still have the dead 9800gt?

hat · Jul 12, 2009, 08:33 PM

Nope, threw it out a long time ago. Trust me, it was fried.

boomstik360 · Jul 12, 2009, 08:38 PM

I was thinking of the cooler

hat · Jul 12, 2009, 09:00 PM

The cooler died on the card long before the card died with the motherboard. I'm going to take the vf900 off of this card and put stock cooling back on it, and put the vf900 on the 9600gso.

Ah trust me, it will make it over 3GHz, but I don't think it will get there on stock voltage. I had to bump the voltage up, but hit almost 3.3GHz with one that I got from KenKickr!

The problem is that the boards should be compatible, however it is up to the manufacturers to adds in support for the new processors. Many board manufacturers were/are lazy and really only add marginal support for newer processors. Plus, the AM2 boards had problems with the Phenoms due to their power requirements.

hat · Jul 13, 2009, 08:04 AM

stinger... what voltage? I know it say VID in the coretemp window but that's only the default voltage for the chip...

@newtekie I had a DFI Lanparty UT 590SLI... that board was no slouch

hat · Jul 14, 2009, 10:38 AM

Card's supposed to be here today

boomstik360 · Jul 14, 2009, 10:45 AM

Sweet good luck man!

hat · Jul 14, 2009, 10:55 AM

I'm having some trouble now though... went to walmart yesterday to pick up some shipping evelopes and one turned out to be sealed shut

Maybe I can use one of the boxes newegg ships stuff in if it's an appropriate size

newtekie1 · Jul 14, 2009, 01:36 PM

The box it comes in from newegg is huge! Probably because the retail box from ASUS is large and flat, almost like a keyboard box...

hat · Jul 14, 2009, 02:26 PM

I have a cpu coming too... 15th supposedly
D:

I've seen newegg boxes before, they are huge, you have to dig to find some things lol. Hopefully I can come up with something
