You need Promo Code: EMCYTZT1461 for the sale price of $129, and here's the link: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...m-_-19-106-012

If you are stuck with an AM3 or AM3+ motherboard setup with a quad core or less CPU, and on the fence about a new CPU, this is hands down the best deal on a hard-core crunching CPU for your rig. Will smoke anything else close to the price. These suckers O/C like a Banshee and only use 95W just like the quads.
You must have a decent motherboard though, because the multiplier is locked, so you have to raise the front side bus (FSB) to O/C.

My main box with the AMD dual-core and three gpu's just got an upgrade. Upped mem to eight gbs. and added the x6 1045t. So more cpu's cores for the rest of the Pent. and no more chocked out gpu's.

Awesome! I can help with the O/C settings too -- very nice on these units. Your mobo's highest stable FSB will be the limiter, not heat because it's only 95W!
