Who's running a Duron NOW?

[Batti]

And what motherboard are you using? Where'd you get it?

I get my duron 700 thursday and a gigabite board from what i have heard the first shipping of durons are not multiplier locked so they will overclock no proplem i hope its true. I should be reporting on the duron thursday night.

 

[Batti]

Thanks, RenoB! Keep us informed. Others????

 

[Batti]

All this talk of Duron's, and nobody has them????

Well, look at this CPU forum, it's filled with overclocking Celeron/PIII posts.

I am waiting for an improvement in the number and quality of boards supporting the Duron. I bet others are too.

 

[Batti]

You'd think there would be some early adopters in this bunch though...

I would have if I found the right socket-A motherboard. The Asus board is just non-existent in the retail channel.

Duron 700s are available locally, but I'm not ready to make the switch from my Celeron yet. Right now I've got all the speed I need. When I build a new system for my sister, I'll probably give her my Celeron stuff, & build myself a Duron or a TBird.
