I know in the channel the amount of 754 boards for SI far outweighs those for 939, and in general 754 cpu sales are greater than 939. Not everyone has an ATX board with a crossfire or sli chipset. Plenty of foxconn 754 solutions with 6100 + 410 chipset in literally hundreds of thousands of badged machines around the world running Semp0rns.

Memories - I remember a couple of guys from XFX getting friendly with my female colleague and someone who will remain nameless from the UK offices of a well known GPU vendor having to peel me off these guys with vigor as I battled for the honour of my colleague after several pints of guiness in a certain Irish bar in Hannover centre. Yet another normal CeBit.

that's why i said emachines and the like... ![]() I am merely amazed at the lack of 754 parts in retail outlets that i have seen. the performance is there for entry-level users...I used to argue the performance potential way back when, remember? Uh, the board in your avvy...case and point. People were saying 754 was dead before that board was released! But most people buying in retail parts outlets are gonna get bigger and better than 754. This leaves budget boxes from OEMs.

I remmeber the sole purpose of that board was for small SI's to be able to sell a solution that was SLI for small bucks. And thena load of idiots went and bought it and put 2 x 7800GTX in it for the performance to be completely throttled by a lack of CPU power. That board was designed for use with 2 x 6600GT's at best. I have a friend on MSN here in the UK who has 2 x 7900GTX on A8N32 SLI with a X2 4400, he is forever complaining because he doesn't know how to overclock but he feels his '06 scores are low - think how he'd feel if he had a 3400+ S754!!!! But back to it - yes - its that emachines business that sells chips in volume, problem is just not quickly enough at this moment perhaps and hence the strategical shift. When you can buy a Pentium D 805 for...............

As for the "nameless" person, this guy wouldn't happen to have a Russian sounding name, would he? I wouldn't be surprised... as this guy I'm thinking of (I'm sure you know him) also happens to like pints.

Guess i'll have to get one before next year then. If i can get a 4000+ X2, then i've maxed it out on my motherboards compatibility side.
