Well the price is certainly fair.Cant wait to see what HH can squeeze out of this $6900 toy! |

69 bucks! Wow processors just on getting cheap. At least the AMD ones. |

So cheap but what's the difference between the 7750 other than the clock speed? |

This sounds like the old socket a AMD 2500+ equivalent. |
