Default [Newegg.com] 9950 BE super price raise?????????
Wow, I just saw this and I am really confused...

AMD Phenom 9950 BLACK EDITION Agena 2.6GHz Socket AM2+ 140W Quad-Core Processor Model HD995ZFAGHBOX - Retail
3 Business Day Shipping $8.25
Your Price:$235.00

Bought one 2 days ago for:

AMD Phenom 9950 BLACK EDITION Agena 2.6GHz Socket AM2+ 140W Quad-Core Processor Model HD995ZFAGHBOX - Retail
Free 3 Day Shipping
Your Price: $173.99

Does anyone know what's going on?

I just bought one and I was literally leaving my house to return it to purchase the 125w edition, but i saw the price, so i'm not going to return it until i find out what's going on.

They will drop the price again close to a holiday LOL....It happend with my 9850 BE....I bought it for like $186.00 or something and within 4 hours of my perchase it dropped to $169.00.....I was Like "Oh Great not again LOL".


Seems like I can map out price drops and they are correct...But If I wait for one it never Happens....So I always end up spending a little more LOL....Just my luck.

Or Patients lol

That doesen't make sense... It would be cheaper... because the 125w version uses less w for the same speed...

It could be, but that's a really drastic price raise, I doubt they would raise it by that much, unless they just don't care about losing almost all of their future 9950BE 140w customers.

You would be surprised how many people would buy the 140w version thinking it is better.

Newegg moves about $1.4 Billion worth of merchandise, there will be those to buy the "lesser" model for more. I am sure there are still people who would buy this.

Man this doesn´t make any sense,a 9950(OEM) is cheaper than a 9850(normal),if the price remains like this i may grab one in a few weeks.
Please Newegg keep your prices!
