I Want a Q9550 E0 Stepping or Q9650 on sale!

I got mine from Newegg for about $310+ tax after Live 3% cash back+ Free S&H.

Plus I got Assasins Creed as a freebie.

It was a gamble though.

Newegg really needs to allow their customers to order the CPU that they want. If I would have gotten a C1 stepper I would have sent it back.

You lucky bastard ! :D :D


Whats the VID on that ?

search for sony ps3 on live.com.

click the top ad which says 30% cashback which takes you to ebay. search for what you want to buy on ebay. this works only for buy it now auctions .

before committing to buy check if cashback is eligible, as it will say how much cashback you will get. then you will get a message in ebay account that you have earned cashback, then follow the link and money will show up in paypal account

That is a sweet CPU for a great price. Over my budget though.

I couldn't find an E0 Q9550 on Ebay. If so I would have bought it. :D

Whats the VID on that ?

I'm not sure yet. All I know is that is has the very best stepping available!!! :toast:


It is still in the box sealed.


I'm waiting for Corsair to send back some RAM I had to RMA.

May not be till next week till I get my machine up and running and ready for some OC+benchmarks.

I'm hoping for at least a stable 500 FSB. :rockout:

That is $248.99 with the %30 cash live +tax if any + $20 S&H.

A little over $40 less than what I paid.

Also I got Assasins Creed game as a freebie.

I feel like a got a good deal and I trust newegg.


I'm a sucker for deals though.

If I return my CPU to Newegg i have to pay about 7 dollars for shipping and insurance.


Then I have to pay more now and wait 60 days to get 30% back.


Seems like i did ok with the deal I got.
