805D price after dust settles on Intel price cuts

Anybody know?

I don't remember seeing any stability testing (at least a 24 hour prime) done on any 4GHz+ OC that were reviewed, that's something authors often overlook.

I have mine OCed by 1Ghz to 3.6Ghz and I dont think that it will shorten its life tooo much (if it last 3 years its already an antique...) I wouldnt bother OCing them too much higher 3.6Ghz is plenty for all the games I play anyway the sub 100$ price is crazy AMD's cheapest dual core is just shy of 300$ although I would have to add that AMD's slowest X2 is probably alot faster then the 805D but I dont think its 3X faster ?

Depends on how much you wanna overclock it. When OC'ed to 4.1GHz, the 805D whups even the FX-60 and Pentium XE in a bunch of benchmarks, let alone AMD's slowest X2:

If the darn thing really only costs $93, does anyone care if it burns out like a light bulb in 6 months?

Well I was talking about stock speeds lol I think a mild bit of OCing makes it realy a great deal for those who are brave enough

Im getting 3.6Ghz on the stock cooler with stock voltage, I think I could hit 3.8Ghz with the stock voltage with a better cooler installed but im lazy and 3.6Ghz seems fast enough for now and will likely hold me off untill I build my real system
