AMD Athlon 550 mhz CPU (has 650 mhz core) with HS + Twin fans. Runs at 750
mhz without changing cache divider (I overclocked it using a Freespeed GFD).
Its a slot A with 512k cache (Athlon classic not thunderbird) I was running
it in an
Epox 7KXA and I actually had it at 850 mhz but had to disable the cache to
get
it to run properly. Unfortunately the GFD (and motherboard) I have wont
allow you
to change the cache divider but some of the newer GFDs / Motherboards do.

The numbers on the top of the cover (which is now removed for better cooling
and so
I could use the GFD) are as follows....

AMD-K7550MTR51B     A
210005527131

It is a  .18 micron core

Reason for sale : I just upgraded to a faster CPU.

Best offer gets it.

AUSTRALIA ONLY PLEASE

Mike.

The selling of pre-overclocked (or 'tampered with' as you say) CPUs is
a quite common and acceptable practice.
In fact, there are MANY computer retailers in the US that indeed
SPECIALISE in selling pre-overclocked CPUs.

So lay off this guy.... :)

How dumb do you expect people to be?
You are asking them to buy a tampered with CPU
As far as anyone is concerned it could of been destroyed by you
running it at excessive speeds, and by you tampering with it,

Daniel,
If you don't want the CPU then why bother commenting??

You really need to work on your people skills....
This guy seems really upfront about what he is selling so give him a break.
