UPDATE: $$$$$PRICE-DROP$$$$$
I'm a bang-for-the-buck guy, so I had to see what all the hubbub over the dual-core Opterons was about. My new 170 is in, so it's time to let go of my baby- a freakshow of a Winchester 3200.

SOLD: Retail Box AMD A64 Winchester 3200+
(For comparison, lowest Pricewatch price is $162 shipped)
Performance as noted with an XP90 HS on an MSI Neo2 Platinum and a DFI Ultra-D
Highest speed tested: 2.8GHz at 1.6V
Daily driver speed: 2.6GHz at 1.5V (idle temp: 25C, load temp: upper 30s C)
This is nice overclocker that has not been abused in any way (daily vcore 1.5V, load temps never higher than mid-40s C). A great performer with 2 years of retail AMD warranty left. Retail box with retail HSF included.
Stepping: 0449 MPM
Yes, just MPM. This is a rare stepping code that, IIRC, AMD has used when they need to fill quotas for lesser ranked processors by taking from higher rated stock. Performance seems to back up that theory.
Even though temps were still low with 1.6V and it probobly wouldn't have done any harm over time, I usually play it safe so I set it at a nice even 2.6GHz (where my RAM was happy at 1:1) and left it at that. Remember: As always, YMMV with OC'ing.
----------------------------------------------------
SOLD: Antec SL400 - 400W SmartPower power supply
(for comparison: lowest Pricewatch price is $57 shipped)
Solid workhorse I got with a 1040 BII case. Never a single problem, never been out of the case so it's in great condition. Not much explaining to do here. Good power supply at a good price.
