Not a bad price if you don't want to overclock a lesser version of this.
why does anyone want amd as opposed to i5/i7? don't they outpace all of amd's processors?
Micro center has the 965s for $170 in store only thou.
Some people care about getting the right answer. The amd chips and chipsets support ECC. The i7 doesn't. Also based on my personal benchmark (which is what I care about), the 940 is faster than an i7-920. Of course you can get the i7 based xeon chips which do support ECC...
whoah hellz no, the i7-920 is alot faster than the phenom II 940, except in gaming where the amd chip comes in close. the problem is that you might be stuck with DDR2 ram as this is a AM2 chip. considering that the i5-750 is going for $175 at ZZF, this might be a horrible deal ATM.

AMD has been using the same chipset for the last ~2, so if you have a AM2 board (many of which could be flashed to enabled AM2+) or have an AM3 board you can run this chip. Intel on the otherhand changes chipsets every 6 months. So to upgrade my box to an Intel chip (i7 920), i'm going to have to spend $500 vs ~200 for the AMD (i already have DDR2 memory).
The breakdown for the i7 920 upgrade.
150 mb
200 chip

500
lyndon_h is 100% correct. This, ironically, is also the reason why I won't upgrade to the newer AMD cpus as I have an Intel 775 system now. For me to get a faster C2Q is $200-$220, to go AMD is about $250 with motherboard, and to go i7 is $500. That my friends, is no choice at all given their relatively close performance.
AMD for the win
Can I get this in my Dell box yet?
