New Socket 939 3400 at Newegg.com
Seems there is a A64 socket 939 CPU out that no one has heard of. It's listed as a 2.2 chip. But that is what the 3500 is, guess we'll just have to wait til AMD updates their spec sheets. By the core voltage it would look like it's a 130 nm chip as the 90 nm chips use a default voltage of 1.4. Things are getting a bit confussing..............

Must have been a bad listing.................stuff like that does happen even to the best of companies.........................

I just checked Newegg for socket 939 CPUs. All the new low end ones have either been taken down or sold out. Only the 3500 and above are listed.

give them time, the chips are just hitting the channels in volume. i would give it a week or two any way just to see how peopel are doing with them.

I have one of these "phantom processors." It's 2.2GHz...512kB cache, but it has a NewCastle core instead of the Winchester core of the 3500.
CPUZ Proof...

yeah, i've seen it on newegg the other day. i thought "it's the same speed as the 3500... what's different here?"

I think someone has made an error here - the 3400+ were a 754 pin, I can't see them going back to 3400+ with the 939's, that'd be just too confusing.

There are s939 3400+ CPUs in s939 form out there, they were just short lived. If I'm not mistaken, the only difference between it and the 3500+ was the HTT bus:

3400+ = 800MHz (1600MHz effective)
3500+ = 1000MHz (2000MHz effective)

The only 800MHz exception I know of in s939 land. It was also never released in retail form, strictly OEM.

EDIT: Typo

You hit the nail on the head with that one............

You still might beablr to find them in cheap OEM systems also.

Then does my BIOS lie? I can set it to 1000MHz without issue...

if you do your going to be overclocking it so... hell yeah switch it to 1000

Exactly - and frankly, I'd be surprised to a see a s939 3400+ that wouldn't hit a 1000MHz HTT.

Well I'm not OCing at the moment, does this mean that I will have a perf issue? I read over at AMD's forums about gripes with this proc needing to be set to 800MHz to boot right (mine boots OK)
