Its P2-940

Considering the fact that P2-920 is only DDR2 and HT 2.0 compatible, I feel its better to wait till the HT 3.0 and DDR3 capable P2-925 come out.

OR get a cheaper ~8K worth Athlon X4 2.8GHz CPU which is supposed to launch soon.

 

[comp@ddict]

But speculations are DDR3 P2 will be a bit costlier and only 5% faster...

 

[hellgate]

called up a vendor in Kolkata.according to him i sud be able to get the P2 920 by Tuesday.

 

[desiibond]

Phenom II 920: 13k
phenom II 940: 15k

 

[hellgate]

^^^ from where did ya get that kinda prices?
the vendor to whom i spoke in the morning called me up a few mins ago and said that P2 920 wud cost be fcuking 16k.

 

[spidy333]

yup.. ur right.. in lynx-india p2 920 is around 14500... and in delhi SMC it is 14000 without tax... I contacted both by phone.. this pricing will hurt amd only..

LOL wat an idiotic pricing from AMD
this proccy cudnt even compete with intel's quad series at that price point!!!!

 

[desiibond]

^^huh.

 

[comp@ddict]

Dun worry, prices will fall in mid feb cuz DDR3 phenom2 will be there in Feb.

And I noe AMD is not that dumb.

 

[amitash]

^^huh.

I think he means core i7 920 at 15k

 

[comp@ddict]

No, well assuming he's not stupid to not hav read than i7 + mobo combo costs 32k +
, then he's referring to the C2Q Q8xxx and Q9xxx series.

 

[max_snyper]

what i meant was in competition with Quad series both p2 fell between INTEL'S Q9xxx and Q8xxx... 4get bout icore series.
And amd Themself said that they are competing Q9xxx and Q8xxx....

we will have to wait for am3 boards and proccys to arrive in feb

and there is goin to be a price cut in 1st week of feb from intel for quads
amd is going to follow that later...........

 

[hellgate]

i dont think i'll buy a P2 @ those idiotic prices.

 

[desiibond]

^^ you have core i7. You need not buy pII

 

[comp@ddict]

Ejaktly, but a price drop for P2 wud be welcome hearing that AMD!!!

Ejaktly, but a price drop for P2 wud be welcome hearing that AMD!!!

But same approach will be taken by Intel in anticipation so Intel offerings should stay rosier then AMD's.
