Anyone care to edit the wiki to tell how to use this to upgrade/build? Or at least a link to good info on it, since this did make it as a front-page deal.

STICK THE PARTS WHERE THEY FIT (make sure they will fit before purchasing

). this deal is dead btw.

Lark Best Avatar Award Member sinceNov 2005 Posts2,139 Reputation 366	I'm kind of behind in the computer world. Will this chip work on a Socket 754? Or do I need a whole new motherboard that supports "Socket AM2"? Is having dual core mean you need to upgrade other stuff like RAM too?

Thanks for the info. But don't the new motherboards support only PCI-Express too? No AGP? So I would also need a new video card too? Sounds like it'll be a lot of money to upgrade... Anyone know what the fastest chip for a socket 754?

About $25 less (delivered) compared to same/similar 5000+ at Newegg [newegg.com], ZZF [zipzoomfly.com], or mwave [mwave.com]. This is an older Windsor compared to a Brisbane. 90nm vs 65nm. 89 W vs 65 W. AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 Dual-Core 5000+ [amd.com] Last edited by therube; 09-08-2007 at 02:53 PM..

AMD, The CIA & Mossad conspired to change CPU pin configurations to
force you to buy a new motherboard.

Don't upgrade to AM2 as there is a backdoor allowing albino midgets disguised as
aliens the ability to view your email.

On another note.... Thnx for the deal OP.... Great Price !!!

yeah, sorry forgot about that. 99% of the am2 mobos dont have agp, so yes, you would have to get a new vidcard. however, if you dnot do any vid editing, hd playback, or gaming, a lot will have a nvidia 6150 builtin.

This is an older Windsor compared to a Barcelona.
90nm vs 65nm. 89 W vs 65 W.

I assume you mean Brisbane and not Barcelona since Barcelona is the code name for AMD's QuadCores. However good find and awesome price.
