Is it worth buying one of these chips?

Damulta have you overclocked yours yet, can you tell me what you think of it as far as gaming goes and daily use?

Wow, must have lowered thier prices between 7:30 and 10 pm. I was hoping for something like: Phenom 9500 = $99
9600 = $120
Black Ed. = $150 Where is it?

Phenom 9500 @ $199.99 FTW!

Now that's an AWESOME deal! For those willing to spend just $200 on a CPU, this is it!!!

BasardMan the hyperthreading on them boards is insane, the new ones. Can you put an Athlon X2 in one, then just bump up HT to 2.6Ghz, then just lower multiplier maybe? I'd hate to have a Phenom with such a crappy HT speed on a regular AM2 board.
only the phenom support HT 3.0 so far

I'll definitely buy a phenom chip, once it gets down to $120 and the performance issues are solved a bit.

seems like a great deal @ $200 i may get one of these over the 5000+ BE, but thats in the future im not upgrading just yet it seems like the smarter thing to do just sitting and waiting
