Intel Core i7 970 =)
 
so as i was wondering around at work on the internet and looking for fun things to get ...

found this intel core i7 970 chip that intel is selling for $215+shipping and tax or the 960 chip for only $89 + shipping and tax =)

i'd like have a hex core chip like you guys do but at the same time 89 for a 500 chip is kinda nice too...
but too bad i can only get one of the two chips which one should i get?

i was on the bot and the max clock for the chip is "only" 6GHz
what do you guys think?

oh and i am pissed at my 920 chip so HA! i monna sale that stupid chip and buy that! :taunt:

or should i still save my cash and try find a 980x or 990x when that comes out =)?

I take it you are getting this through the retail edge program? They just limit you to one don't they? Do they have any deals on SSD's?

kikicoco1334 11-30-2010 11:03 AM

sry been buzzy
but i am trying to see if i can get a few for the team too...
if i remember right it's like 215 for the chip and 10percent tax and $15 for the shipping
that's EACH

yeah they do have a SSD it's 219 for 160
