Are these just chips that can reach 4.3 or is he just buying i7s and putting supercharged in the listing.

Anybody can do this if they have a nearby store that sells the CPU cheap, then jack up the price once the OC limit is reached. A little extra money wouldn't hurt. I live only 5 minutes from Micro Center. Maybe I should try and cash in on this.

More than likely just buying i7s and putting supercharged on them lol.

Most i7s WILL hit 4.3 @ 1.4x vcore though.

I can't believe people actually are bidding on that.

I'd rather buy one from the store and supercharge it myself.

Even us OC buy stuff on eBay sometimes. Some deals are just too hard to pass up. Others make me wonder WTH did they sell that at that price. No wonder I couldn't find the store's listing. It's only on the Canadian eBay site.
