sorry i dont understand what you're asking?

The link is a pc for sale on ebay (a 3200 venice) same as mine running @ 2500mhz

That is faster than a amd 3800, what i want to know is is it true that the venice chips are basicly all the same and the 3200 has been restricted, unrestrict it by overclocking to the same settings for an amd 3800 and you have saved some cash.
