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.

    I have a dual Tyan m/b with two XP ...

    Hold on there, pal... Since Tyan *does NOT make* MPX motherboars, you're running an 760MP motherboard... not an 760MPX. This is important because this problem does not exist on 760MP motherboards. Athlon XP's work fine on those mobos.

    What I'd like to know is does anyone have an MPX motherboard with two athlonXP's running stable? And for how long?
