W WinstonTJ Nov 15, 2009 #1 Used is fine as long as you haven't fried them due to overclocking. Hoping some people are in the process of upgrading to new i7 chips. Looking to buy 4 Q9650 CPUs. PM or email thomasjwinston AT yahoo DOT com

Z zgtrader Nov 30, 2009 #3 You are probably better off just buying them new. Retail is around $319 (newegg) and you can find them around $295 new (ebay). Even used they only discount to around $265 to $290. Not much savings.

E ET873 Dec 1, 2009 #4 I'd buy new, especially if you plan to use for trading. You'll never know how well someone has taken care of their CPUs.
