Also another $700 each more expensive. I need them for a project and have been waiting on them for 4 months now, each month AMD pushing them out another 30 days. Getting to be freakin' ridiculous! But definitely not very funny. AMD is now telling my distributor that the 90nm cores were NEVER released, wh/I don't find very believable. So I am curious, does anyone have any 90nm cores, or is the AMD guy telling the truth about th CG being the "most recent"? -- Best regards, Ken Gunderson Q: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation.
