Processors - Desktops

Comments: Just used this CPU for the first PC I built running Red Hat Linux 7.2. Was nervous while fitting the heat sink but got it right. No complaints. Great service and price from newegg.

Comments: I thought there was a problem installing the heatsink too, but i noticed on one side of the heatsink, there's a little slot where you can insert a flat headed screw-driver in. So what you do is hook one side, then using the screw driver, push down the other side. It's quick and painless... ;))

Comments: Just got mine today. Paid $98 for the retail setup and I must say than I am more than pleased with this little endeavor. Took less than ten minutes to put in, cranked the front side bus up to 150, and voila, got 1.5 with no problems. Ran a few benchmarks, Sisoft Sandra, MadOnion, etc.....nary a glitch. Got lucky and got the AHYJA week 26 to boot. Cheap price for a quick processor. Newegg got it here in 4 days too. Good deal!!!

Comments: This is a fast processor and the best bang for the buck as one package if u can successfully put the heatsink on without destroying your mobo or the CPU. The stupid heatsink fan combo that came in the retail box is a $10 model and it took two hands pushing down with all my weight with 2 screwdrivers to get the latch to snap in. I even had to take the fan off the heatsink so i can get more leverage to push down on the latch. This CPU will not ever be taken off. If you r a computer techi, it's better to buy an OEM CPU and a good heatsink fan combo than to buy the retail. Of course i have to mention that Newegg price is always excellent. The delivery was not as quick as their usualy but still reasonably fast. I like Newegg's drop shipment because i'm not home during the day.

Comments: I must say that this processor runs faster than my dad 1.5 p4. Its amazing

Comments: What can I say, I've been running Athlon 1.33GHz for over 6 months with out ANY flaws and it works well. I paid $210 back than and now it's around $114 now (12/25/2001). My brother also bought another one when it was $112 3-4 days ago. I didn't overclock it yet. I don't see a reason, since it works to my expectations. Screw Intel, their processors are way too high to pay for and thier 1.5 cant even beat 1.2. Think about the possibilities with 1.33!

Comments: This is an awesome product!! I got it stably O/C to 1620!! It even POSTs at 1750 :) No better deal out there...

Comments: G R E A T ! Runs at 1.55 GHZ on my Epox board.
