FX 4100 for sale?

Microcenter by me shows seven in stock online for store pickup only...
I thought these have not been released yet..
I may go grab one being as the price in 129.99

 

ok are these officially released yet?

and if so why are they not on any of the major retail sites?

 

Pretty sure Microcenter got the FX line before anyone else. That quadcore should be a good deal.

 

That would be a downgrade from your current PII X4.

 

^this

keep what you got.

 

buy it and see if it can unlock

 

I should have changed my specs as I currently have nothing but i am buying all the same stuff again except cpu and gpu which will be different...oh and psu ..I can only afford a 500 watt ocz modxtreme

 

Your Phenom II 955 is better than FX 4100.

 

check out the 6core version, they should have a great price on it soon.

 

Even the FX-6100 will have a tough time beating a Phenom II x4. It's pointless getting any of the FX processors, to be honest, as the Phenom II lineup is better. The FX processors aren't worth it. The A8-3850 is typically better than the FX-4100.

 

You're be better off buying another 955 BE for $120 off Newegg....or the 965BE for $130.

 

Look and weep. And then they did it to mirror the new schedulers performance:

 

People should learn to read lol, Tyrant has said above that he's starting from scratch.

Now, question is what's Tyrant's budget? Maybe Sandy Bridge would do him good.

That's just disgusting performance for the price.

 

Delta this time my budget is about 750.00 USD

want 8 gigs of ram and a quad core cpu

I already have the case

 

I would wait, your rig is already plenty powerful for nearly anything today. I would wait till the next round of releases (Ivy Bridge/Piledriver, Kepler/Trinity, etc) before upgrading.

 

no no lol...ignore the specs i have no rig right now and am looking to build one for 750.oo USD

 

Can you list out exactly what parts you currently have and what you want the computer to do.

Also, where is the purchase location and how long do you want the rig to last?

 

Currently I have just a case
I will be buying from newegg
I want to game at mid/high to high settings
rig should last me until I feel like upgrading some parts.

 

I'll point you in the right direction:

Intel i5-2500k = $205

ASRock Z68 Extreme3 Gen3 = $125

G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 = $50 (with free 4GB flash card)

GIGABYTE Radeon HD 6950 1GB = $220 (after $20 rebate)
or
GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 560 Ti 1GB = $200 (after $20 rebate)

600W-650W 80 Plus Bronze PSU = $60-$80

Samsung F3 or WD Blue 1TB = $60

And if you squeeze it into your budget, a 60GB-64GB SSD for $90-$120 (Crucial M4, etc).
