Good deal but is the heatsink any better than the stock one? It doesn't appear to be anything fancy.

It's dead. But there was a different code ($30) a week before, died, then came back with the $40 code. So it might come back again.

IMO this isn't even close to a deal, when the 1090T X6 and the like were still readily available, they were under $100, and the 965 is OLD (I've had 2 cpu upgrades since I tossed my 940).

I don't think you can unlock a 965. The AMD 960 could be unlocked. But the success rate is not 100%. It's based on your luck.

I would definitely say the newer Pentiums around $70 are worth buying. Nearly i3 2100 performance for way less if you're not worried about overclocking.
