Paint Yourself An Athlon MP

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the conductive-paint-that-is dept.

SNIa asks: "How many people are checking the prices of AMD chips after seeing this?" and points out this article at HardwareZone.com about modifying Athlon XP processors to perform like MPs. No guarantees, except a voided warranty.

    What with a new version of SuSE and now this.
    Looks like it's time for a new rig. I'll get:
    • Two XPs
    • SuSE 8.0
    • And now floppy drive
    • Clear case
    • Perhaps a liquid cooling system.
      What would be really cool is if you had clear tubes
      and a special die in the water that changed colors by temperature.
    • I'm definitely getting those drive windows.
