Intel Q9400 Core 2 Quad for 47.97Euros

ZeRoY

Hi all,

Just picked up an Brand New Boxed (with fan) Intel Q9400 Core 2 Quad (LGA775, 2.66Ghz, 6Mb Cache) for 47.97Euros instead of 319.99Euros in PC World Dundalk . One was left on the shelf, not sure if this is something they are doing in all PC World but sure is a bargain (even if the original price was way overpriced!)

Holy crap thats cheap. I would say it was only the one in Dundalk, they couldn't be clearing them out as they're still fairly recent.

Was it a refurbished model?

A cpu can't be refurbished.

Holy crap, i have the Q9300, so it's not much of an upgrade, although i think that cpu has hardware virtualisation activated. At that price i might just buy it and sell it on ebay or something.

Brand new in the box and with the seal still on it

Perhaps the only one left? and not a bargain alert for anyone else?

The same part retails for over 200 snots! you got yourself a real deal!

I've just checked their website finally, and they don't even have any opening hours on it!! Rather amateurish on their part. Assuming they have the same opening hours nationwide, can anyone tell me what time their local PC world opens at?! In return, I can give a low-down on what other special offers there are in PC world Dundalk today.:D

P.S. the phone number rings out for them too.

Tried in the Galway store there and had no joy, 3 CPUs and all of them AMD

i checked a couple of stores and they were all out so if anyone got two and would like to pass one on, please let me know.

Ps they have the radeon 4870 512mb for 80 euro and the 1 gb for 130.

No cpus whatsoever in blanchardstown. Nothing at all.

Went to Blanchardstown myself today in the hope I finding something, but saw the same.

How disappointing.

Off topic, but generally speaking it seems the sales this year are dismal. Very little effort on the part of many shops - a small smattering of typically poor stock put aside for meagre discounts and that's it. Only decent sale I saw was in River Island.

Thought retail was desperate for sales!

Making It Bad

Was in PC world in Mahon Point today and saw no CPUs at ALL either
