So I went to blizzcon this year, and at the AMD/ATI booth, they had a lot of drawings. In one of these drawings I happened to win a 9850 black edition. Now, this would actually fit in my motherboard, however i'm using a 3.0 ghz dual-core right now, and it's really not that much worse, and the amount of money i would be able to get for it used is FAR less.
to make a long story short, I have a 9850 black edition socket AM2+ processor, if i sell it on amazon they will take a **** from it, and i'm willing to sell it for less than any non-combo, non-mail-in rebate price you can find
this is the RETAIL version, not OEM, so it does come with a heatsink/fan
it's still unopened in it's box
the lowest price I could find is 169.00 from newegg, so for now the price is gonna be 165
price includes shipping
