buying my first barton, newegg or exacliberPC?

[simple]

Sorry guys, if this has been asked a g'jillion times..

Im buying my first chip online and saw that excaliberpc boasts the 2500+ with the popular stepping for oc'ing, should i buy from these guys and does that stepping give me a REAL good chance for a decent oc?

..Or should i go newegg?..

thx for your opinions/advice.

If ex has the best stepping cpu then go with them. Chances are its the same price as newegg anyways, or pretty close.

Excaliber sells specific steppings and week #'s. However, word of mouth says newegg has even newer week #'s but then there is no guarantee with newegg you get that newer week #. Probably cannot go wrong either way. Although I've made multiple order excaliber I'd probably go with newegg on this one. Its slightly cheaper and potentially better
