AMD Athlon XP 1800 for only 90$

NewEgg.com has the 1.53Ghz AMD Athlon XP 1800 for only 90$!!!!

www.3btech.net has them for $82 with the same 30 day warranty and they are tested before shipping. Now if you're like me and want the reatail version with the three year warranty and CPU fan included, GoogleGear.com has those for $104.50 shipped FedEx two day.

How new is 3btech though? They're not in resellerratings. Also, at the bottom of the info page (that no one really looks at) is says Not Responsible for Typos. Take it one way or another. But, I'd stick with a company I trust. So far, it has only been Newegg and Mwave.

I guess I do agree with that. I stick with GoogleGear for my CPUs. I do not like to order from NewEgg.com because they make you pay shipping on every single part you order even when you order multiple items. If they ever start combining shipping, I'll start shopping there again.

I've ordered multiple items from Newegg and shipping was never seperate. The shipping was totalled by weight.

I think Newegg is very far in shipping. I few days(mabey weeks) I ordered some new logitech z series speakers. they were over 10.00 pounds but the shipping was only like $13, not bad at all.

I'll give you an exampe. I went to order a Sony 52x CD-ROM, and a tube of heatsink compound. The shipping charge on the Cd-ROM was $6, and the shipping on the heatsink compound was $4 I think. Wne I went to the order screen, it wanted to charge me $10 total for shipping. They'll package them in the same box anyways, so why should I pay $4 extra for shipping on a little tube of heatsink compound? Does NewEgg reallyy pay that? As far as I'm concerned it is a cheesy way to make an extra buck.

I will say that I have nothing else really against NewEgg. They have been reliable and relatively easy to deal with. It's just that one thing that makes me comparison shop somewhere else before buying from them.

Actually they will be shipped in two separate boxes. They will arrive together, but in diffrerent boxes.
