They used to have the prices on there but they stopped about a year ago. and then they were a hell of a lot back then.

not to sure how they get 32 cores form 8 x AMD dual cores, wouldent that be 16 cores??

:bow: I, for one, welcome our new 32 core overlords! :bow:


I wonder if anyone on this forum owns or uses Boxx hardware?
