For those who don't want to go through the hassle of replacing both their motherboard and processor together, as well as a re-installation of the operating system and some software...
more...as well, this processor upgrade is a great, simple, and cost-effective solution which will significantly prolong the life of your PC. The AMD Athlon XP processor powers the next generation in computing platforms, delivering extra performance for cutting-edge applications and an extraordinary computing experience. It is designed to meet the computation-intensive requirements of cutting-edge software applications running on high-performance desktop systems. AMD delivers tremendous performance by increasing the amount of work done per clock cycle and improving the operating frequency at the same time. The end result is a processor design that produces a high volume of work done per cycle and high operating frequencies - an optimum combination for compelling application performance. Too, Athlon XP takes advantage of connected digital devices and their content by delivering realistic photos, smooth videos, and rich sound.

Hello, dear Ciao community

I so slowly really find pleasure in the technical category and I would like to write a new report on something technical because of this today.
AMD is a processor for a PC of the manufacturer and the name AMD Athlon XP has 2700+.

@ what?s that? @

What all these, these don't know about computers and the components so, I would like to explain himself in this place for a processor or said better is one CPU (Central Processing Unit) and for what one needs something like that.
A CPU is so to speak the brain of a computer, it is square or rectangularly and also rather flatly and small mostly.

On one side it has many for pin golden it is told to these on the mount at the Mainboard.
On the top side it has a mostly silver chip which takes on the main rake work since this chip can get rather hot one needs CPU for one unite CPU cooler or Lüfter so that she is held at approximately 50 degrees so.
One could say actually a CPU the more highly that a CPU is almost the most important part in a computer is the Mhz number and the internal clock frequency, the faster can process and calculate processes.

@ technical data @

MHz: 2166MHz
Kern: Thoroughbred Kern (0,13µm - Technik)
L1 Cache: 128kB L1-Cache
L2 Cache: 256kB L2-Cache
Sockel: compatible to all new sockel A Mainboards
FSB: FSB333 MHz.

@ Der Einbau @

Before one begins with the installation one also should make sure whether one the fitting cooler has and heat sink compound also has.
After this one opens the mount at the base and the CPU puts carefully into the holes, one can make the CPU also only into a direction.

The heat sink compound is still made on the chip after this, however, the chip should neither too much nor too little be only extremely thinly thus covered, one should feel overtaxed, one should let it make a specialist because otherwise the CPU still breaks.
The CPU sits once and the paste is served correctly, one then only must the CPU cooler assembles, however, one must be quite careful because one mustn't touch the Mainboard with that so that you don't damage.

Provided that one has done everything correctly, one can switch the PC on, one still should go into the Bios now and the name 2700+should make the time adjustments for the CPU now provided that it wasn't automatically recognized yet shortly after the start-up seem.

@ temperature @

I have approximately my CPU now half a year and of course I could make lots of observations at this time what the warmth concerns.
Shortly after switching the computer on this CPU has a temperature of approximately 37 degrees in the Bios.
This CPU already arises by the 45 degrees in the normal business at normal load so, it has a temperature of up to 57 degrees at games or effortful programs all values are what loosely is still permitted in which.
In principle, a CPU can be used with 70 degrees or so, most only switch themselves off for CPU?for s already at 65 degrees for own safety reasons.

@ other cpu?s @

God the tallest portion of the normal people hears or all the better the numbers on numbers and the more greatly only are said better for buyers unfortunately s is the CPU?, by which this AMD cannot keep pace with Intel at the clock frequencies, the PR Rating was invented by not calling the outer clock frequency but the internal, therefore AMD can keep pace with Intel again well and a CPU of this type comes approximately to the same values as an Intel pentium 4 with 2.8 Ghz, in addition, the AMD processors are much more favorable than these from the competitor Intel.

@ the price @

I have bought this CPU at an Internet shop, I think it has cost at about the 90 euros, I think that the price completely OK goes.
Substantially more would cost a CPU of this speed of the manufacturer Intel.

@ my opinion @

We are coming to the result now and I only can say it is a very good result, I have this CPU now for over one half year and it has never let me down.
I still always am with this CPU more than been content and am it today, too.
Up till now my CPU has never got too hot and my computer has never fallen away because of it, too, it was now third CPU means AMD of the manufacturer and I thus always have driven well, my next CPU also will be of AMD.

With the performance I am also more than content and one cannot bleat at the price either, games like Unreal Tournament 2004 or Far Cry are going on liquidly and without problems with me.
Also otherwise work for the normal one under Windows or the CPU works very reliably and fast so?

I had problems up till now with this CPU, when one knows a bit, never one then gets the installation without problems to, too, one therefore gets a really good CPU for an extremely humane price here.

Of the manufacturer AMD and because of this quite clearly to one further top product I also allocate all 5 available stars here at Ciao and therefore express with pleasure a recommendation for this CPU for me.

Please take consideration at the assessment because I come from Germany, many thanks!
