I have been trying to get hold of an AMD Athlon 64 3500+ Winchester 90nm (Socket 939) for a few weeks now but they seem to be out of stock every where I look, some places like Dabs dpn't specify which one they are selling, I want to make sure I get a Winchester nota Newcastle, can anyone help me ??
Not 100% sure myself, but I think winchesters are discontinued, I think newcastles are the replacement, but I wouldnt take my word for it until someone else can shed some light on it.

These are both 90nm Winchester 3500+'s.

Been out the loop a while, as i'm sure some of you will know... You only have to ignore the progress of hardware for a few months and your a newbie once again!!!
Although I can help out and say if your looking for a UK site

Not bought from them personally so I dont know how good they are though. And the model you were looking for too.

Sorry for any misinformation before... glad I said not to take my word for it!
They are advertising Winnies anyway. If they are reputable both the 3200+ and 3500+ in their ads are 90nm. Good find RufusKing, but the 3500+ is out of stock.
I just bought one from Monarch Computers today.
