All Athlon XP 2400+ chips are the same so no worries there. I heard that there is a price cut comming on Monday so i'll be waiting for that. You can get them from Aria.co.uk for £130 +VAT but i suspect that on or after Monday that will come down to about £110-£115+Vat or so.

I got that chip from Newegg last week. I've gotten mine up to 2250 MHz (150 MHz x 15). Anything over 150 and Windows refuses to load. I have not unlocked it yet to see what it really can do multiplier wise. It is a week 42 chip.

Hehe well I may be going with my cousin and his brother-in-law, so I may have to use that 1700+ and my 8KHA+ as barter bait in case they win the 2400+ and I don't. :)

But if not, yah I'll be looking to unload either the 1700+ T-bred or my 1800+ Pally. I'll def. keep ya in mind pillage :)

Shouldn't you have asked BEFORE you bought the chip? LOL. AFAIK all the 2400+ chips are the same at this point in time. Now, you DID research WHY you wanted a 2400+, right?

AW..CRAP!?!?!? :p

Actually I won a 2400+ last night at an AMD event. They just don't give those out on the raffle. You get them for competing in the trivia.
