Then why has the Opteron 165 gone UP in price..... about a week to two weeks ago the opty 165 was going for 325$ on newegg.com and now its up to 340$. WTF
Now the good deal has lost some of its luster, only way I still go opty is if they include the new 1337 HSF. Because after all... it OC's pretty nicely up to 2.7ghz with stock cooling (thats with the old stock cooler lol). So im betting 2.8-2.9 wouldnt be out of the question.

what old stock cooler, it always came with the 1337 HSF, old stock cooler you must be talking about on socket 940.. which is.. different.
For computers, buying cheaply and often will only leave you constantly in a world of shit.

Well the one you linked too.... I thought was new for all X2's and optys. Didnt know it was stock... that would explain the good OC's
But thats here nor their... why is hte price rasing if the cost went down.
