I have just spent $800 on CPUs. What am i going to do now? At least $80 in cash back is nice.
They also have PNY 240GB SSD for $72, which is $65 after eBay bux. I've got one and it's nice.
I read somewhere that windows 10 pro is optimized to use only two physical cores. is that true? what about all these six cores then, will they sit idle?
No. Even with threadripper (16 cores) it is showing on many benchmarks ran on windows 10 to be much more effect that other ones with less cores.
Someone on Reddit mentioned the seller in this case "refurbforless" there have been reports in the past when buying a NEW item they actually received a returned/used item.

I wish I had 10% ebay bucks when I got my 1700.
