[Azza]

Hi Scan

Are the price of the AMD cpus up to date from the price drop that happened today? They look it just making sure.

Prices going to go down a bit more?

Yeah Im waiting too, some of the prices went down a week or so ago (I think in response to competitor prices going down)

At present, the prices are not worth it really considering the competition from Intel (unless you're upgrading)
I'm not too sure I really need dual core although if the price is right I might go for it. Personally I'd prefer a 22" TFT

They're on TodayOnly for another 3 hours.

As we've said before - our pricing is Real Time - if there are any changes, they happen immediately.

Speaking of AMD CPUs, I noticed this morning, when I too was watching for a price reduction, the product description/name/technical specs conflict each other on the 5000+ (ScanCode: LN14253).

It is titled "AMD AM2 Athlon 64 5000+ Windsor Core, Dual Core 2.6GHz, 2x 512KB Cache, Retail" this matches with the technical specs which state that it is a Windsor core along with the voltages being 1.30-1.35V. However it conflicts with the other specifications; the manufacturer number and the core size.

The manufacturer number of the product is stated as ADO5000DDBOX which, when looked up on the AMD specs site (vvvvvv.amdcompare.com/us-en/desktop/details.aspx?opn=ADO5000IAA5DD), shows that it is a version with a 65nm SOI and a 1.25-1.35V operating voltage. This I believe is the newer Brisbane cored version.

Is there any possibility of this being corrected to avoid this confusion please? Even if it's just renaming the product and removing all technical specifications to just leave the manufacturer number, at least then it be clear which product it actually was that is available.
