I upgraded to a 550 BE

I decided to upgrade to a 550 BE, and yes I plan to unlock the cores. LOL. Anyway I got it from MicroCenter for 87 NewEgg was selling it for 95.

Now for the main reason why I started this post. While I was there I found out they have a great deal there right now. I got a GIGABYTE GA-M61PME-S2P for 17.99 with a 10 MIR. It maybe a older mobo but this one also supports AM3. So I will but my 250 in it. This PC will go to my mother since she needs one.

So if you in need of a good deal MicroCenter has $20 off any AMD mobo's with purchase of select AMD CPU's.

it sucks where i live. no microcenter and no frys

only thing we have here is best buy, which.. well i'd rather just buy it online then instead of paying full retail prices

Best Buy charges way to much, 20+% more than NewEgg and MicroCenter.

OK, after days of BSOD's I have finally decided to stay with it as a dual core. I am at 3.8 and stable using 1.475v.
