Now.. I can buy these if I fancy them, but I have no use for them.. and it's not allowed to sell them for profit here on HEXUS.. so I'm stuck. Don't want to look a gift horse in the mouth, not if a HEXITE can use them.
Any idea what prices I should pay for them so I don't get stuck with them?
The X3 720BE was around £90 to £100 brand new and the X3 710 around £80 to £90 brand new IIRC.
Re: Price check: Phenom II's
Hard to say - they seemed to vanish from retail very quickly and are hard to get hold of now so second hand ones seem to be holding up in the £80 - £90 price range still. Personally if I was buying them to move on rather than keep, I wouldn't want to spend more than about £55 on the 710 and perhaps £70 on the 720?
Re: Price check: Phenom II's
ok cheers guys.. I shall attempt to get them for around the £50 and £60 bracket I think.
Re: Price check: Phenom II's
Im also guessing if they unlock to a stable 4th core that may affect the value of them too.
Re: Price check: Phenom II's
I'm not gonna do that.. just got a bargain, not gonna kill it ;)
Re: Price check: Phenom II's
Attempting to unlock, or unlocking, wouldnt kill it.

How many people do you know that can kill a machine just by updating the BIOS?
Or kill a machine by simply installing RAM?

Are you trying to tell us something about Z33 we don't know?
BTW I wouldn't pay over £60 for the 720. Most x2s now unlock to at least a tri now.
Re: Price check: Phenom II's
I just look a PC's to kill them.. I get my friends to upgrade the ram for the death blow? ;)
720 for sale in the For Sale forum now.
