AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ Windsor Socket AM2 Proc $107.50

Like the title states. Newegg has the AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ Windsor 2.2GHz Socket AM2 Processor - Retail for $107.50 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103747). Good time to jump into a dual core proc.

I wish that'd of been out at that price when I bought my E6300. I know what I got now is somewhat better, but man I could of saved some money!

Anybody know if there's any difference between these cores:

ADA4200CUBOX (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103747) (the core OP posted)

vs

ADO4200CUBOX (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103741)

The latter is a low power version of the same chip. Same die and all, but with the "EE" label, I believe the first link's TDP is 89W, while the second is 65W. I would go with the 65W version unless you really want to go with the bundle on the other.

anyone have a good performance graph of these vs. c2d's? I'm just curious.

How can this become a bash session?
