New AMD Athlon 64 - 939pin CPUs now available in 3000+ and 3200+ :)

New 90nm process... :01:
These look good for overclocking.
Swee-eet.
The benchies confirm my suspicion that the Via chipset outperforms the Nforce3 chip, but there's not much in it. Nforce4 may be a different story though.
Did anyone notice the intel furnace puffing away in the background getting all hot and bothered but still not really able to keep up? :rolleyes:

Yeah. I heard that this can be an issue. I think the best strategy is to be clear with your provider that you expect the BIOS to support your chip. Be sure to mention all this before the purchase.
