which core to buy???

[supersaiyan]

hey guys
i want to buy an athlon xo 64 3000+ or 3200+
but the problem is that in delhi the venice core is not available which i believe is the best among the available cores.
the available cores are newcastle barton and winchester
so which one should i buy
btw i would be using it for gaming and graphics editing
pls post the contact details of the dealer if u know that he/she has the venice core

[mario_pant]

if u ask me it depends on the OS u would be using.......... but i would suggest you should buy barton core.... that kind of wide variety of $hits is not available here in chandigarh.... we just get the newcastle core here.....

PS: hurray this is my 200th post!!

@mario_pant

barton was for the Atlon XP's not Athlon 64

only if u weren't in such a hurry to get high number of posts

[mario_pant]

@mario_pant
Do u have nothing more important to do than posting wrong information around,

There is nothing like "Athlon xo 64" or even "Athlon XP 64" does not exist.
Athlon XP's were made on barton core... and they are discontinued...you might get mobile processors though...

"AMD Athlon 64" processors exist.

as for the original question about cores, I'd like to correct gxsaurav for the wrong information he has given...

San Diego is not there for 3000+ or 3200+,
Newcastle is on 130nm die, winchester is on 90nm, same as venice, less heat, better overclocker, so winchester is superior core to newcastle. Also gxsaurav, i do not mean any offense but will u please point me to where did u gather that information that newcastle is better than winchester.

Let me post here the order in which the cores are better

San Diego
Venice
Winchester
Newcastle
Clahammer



Now I think ur question is pointless becuse u should easily get venice in delhi, if u dont i'll tell u where to get, i've a friend there who can provide u.
As far as Venice is concerned look for E6 revision if u can get, which is out in US, the part number will look something like ....BW, or BWBOX,
But u might not get E6 revision....
so u can have E3 revision part number ...BP, or ...BPBOX.
That's what i have.

I've a friend there who has this site running, maybe he'll get u venice, gimme a day or two and i'll provide u with more information, and believe me, that venice core is worth waiting for

"Because it has improved memory controller, apart fom the SSE3 support that has been added", so it's worth waiting, i had to wait about 15 days to get venice core back when it was uncommon, it's common now.

[supersaiyan]

take your time kniwor, and thanks

[supersaiyan]

at teka2z the price is 7,969.00INR of the 3000+venice core. is this price reasonable?

[abhijit_reddevil]

Heck no, buddy!!! At Delta Peripherals, Chennai (www.deltapage.com), they are selling 3000+ Venice core for around Rs.7300.
