[WTB] 45nm Yorkfield Quad core socket 775 CPU

[foggyb]

I need one of the following: Q8200-Q9650 series, or a QX series.

OR

Xeon X3320, Xeon X3330.

Will pay btc for reasonably priced, and working stable condition.



*EDIT*

 - Purchased e8500 from xurious

Thanks, but I saw his thread ... those are not socket 775 CPU's.

If you're interested, I have one 775 chip left, the Q9550S ES.

What's a reasonable price? I sold my q9450 just a few weeks ago for $150 shipped. It sold within a few hours.

If it runs stable & overclocks, I'll take it. My offer is 20 BTC shipped to Canada.

I'm guessing is he'll want something along the lines of 60 btc minimum as it's some weird "collectors" model. Nothing against him or the chip.

My OP clearly says 'reasonably priced'. I'm just looking for a 775 upgrade.

I can't convince you of a cheap e8500 upgrade? 10 BTC shipped. I know it's only dual core, but the higher cache does do wonders.

Actually a really good price for that e8500. My brother has the e8400, and it's a pretty decent chip (for it's time).

I was going to say no, but then i did a little checking and it overclocks real well (at least good samples do). Is this an E0 stepping? Those are the best.

10 shipped to Canada, I can do that.

Thanks but I'm going to have to pass on that offer, as these go for $350+ on eBay (and they're not ES).

Not sure if I would call it a collector's model, but rather an out of production, rare stepping that is sought after.

I'd say when you can purchase a current tech chip (Sandybridge-e or Ivybridge), that delivers superior performance, at the same or lower cost and yet someone paid $350 for the 9550, then I'd certainly call that collectors. Especially when the same chip without the rare stepping is sold for half the price and performs the same.



I also did sell Foggyb an e8500. It'll go out USPS Today.
