Just wanted to let everyone know the the Intel Pentium 4 541 Prescott 3.2GHz 1MB L2 Cache LGA 775 Processor is no longer being made... Just got the e-mail a few seconds ago.

Right now they are $85 at Newegg.

Cheap only if you already have everything but the CPU! Try a 2.2ghz socket939 Athlon64 for $56 shipped. The socket754 model is $3 less!

I'm agree with Kougar
If you build a new system, AMD cpu 939/AM2 would be a better choice
