AMD to Cut Phenom Prices Today

a 9600 BE at the price of a 5000/6400 BE would be preety sweet, and about the only other way to sell phenoms

I will totally buy one at this price.

i would very happily buy a 9600 BE for $100 :roll: even @ $160 it would be a steal!
 
... where are the cheap chips?!
 
The chip is worth 199.99 IMO
 
Now things get interesting...

Is it worth buying one of these chips?

Damulta have you overclocked yours yet, can you tell me what you think of it as far as gaming goes and daily use?
 
Working on that now, look at the 06 thread.
 
Wow, must have lowered thier prices between 7:30 and 10 pm. I was hoping for something like: Phenom 9500 = $99
9600 = $120
Black Ed. = $150 Where is it?
 
Phenom 9500 @ $199.99 FTW!

Now that's an AWESOME deal! For those willing to spend just $200 on a CPU, this is it!!!
 
Man the hyperthreading on them boards is insane, the new ones. Can you put an Athlon X2 in one, then just bump up HT to 2.6Ghz, then just lower multiplier maybe? I'd hate to have a Phenom with such a crappy HT speed on a regular AM2 board.

only the phenom support HT 3.0 so far
 
I'll definitely buy a phenom chip, once it gets down to $120 and the performance issues are solved a bit.
 
seems like a great deal @ $200 i may get one of these over the 5000+ BE, but thats in the future im not upgrading just yet it seems like the smarter thing to do just sitting and waiting
 
Hell yeah. About all I can say on this. Though, Id like to see some future "Price Estimates"
