    Default (REALLY)Cheap Core 2 Extreme Processors

    I'm thinking of buying a few processors from China .Cost is about US$80-100 +shipping (paperweight)



    The minimum order is 5 and the company is verified.Do you think there's a catch? Seems pretty legit to me atm.
    Also , if anyone is interested in chipping in ,you can pm me ; I just want to buy this for my personal use so 4 of them
    have to go.

    Core 2 Extreme chips don't stand a chance against anything from the newer gens. Why do you specifically need them?

    For Obvious reasons : Can't afford a complete upgrade.
