Athlon64 Upgrade

(1/3) > >>

Tman:
I ordered this Tuesday night. It should get here by Monday. World of Warcraft is going to be so fast :devil:

Clicky

I think it's a great deal for all that I'm getting, Athlon64, 1GB mem, GeForce 6200 (with turbocache which uses PCIe x16, very fast, have to have a mobo that supports it), and a nice fan that should let me overclock a bit. Hopefully my power supply can take it...

Anyways, what do you think?

ober:
niiiiice.  I wanted to go with an Athlon64 when I upgraded, but got a better deal on a P4.

jverkoey:
That's the same processor I just bought for my new computer, runs really nicely and VERY cool (cold start it's at about 30, hot running it gets at max 42).

sand_man:
wow
my athlon xp 3200+ is currently running at 64C. And that is about as cool as it gets without turning it off.

jverkoey:
The AMD 64 chip has a ton of surface area which would explain why it keeps so cool I believe.
