Wanted: socket 754 AMD CPU, HAVE: Amiga HD floppy drives &games
« on: January 22, 2007, 03:29:26 PM »
I'm looking to upgrade the 1800MHz Sempron CPU in my PC. If anyone has a surplus Athlon (socket 754) floating about I'd be interested.

I don't have too much Amiga bits floating about, from the top of my head some random boxed games and 2 FZ-357A HD floppies. They're still untested, but were pulled from working Amigas ages ago.

I've also got a Competition Pro USB joystick (the blue version) if anyone's interested. IMO it's a piece of junk :(.

-edit-
Games:
Carrier Command (Kixx), Stack up, Swiv, World Cup 90, Heimdall (budget), Bubba 'n' Stix (budget), Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles, Bionic Commando (Kixx), B-17 Flying Fortress, James Pond 2, Microcosm (CD), Sensible World of Soccer CD32: European Champions, Simon the Sorcerer CD32.

All complete and boxed, CD titles just in jewel case.

Hehe. That is the CPU I acutally upgraded from.  I have a 2.2ghz Athlon 64 venice core on my computer and its socket 939, and I got a HUGE performance boost from the AMD Sempron 3000+.

Newegg.com is our friend.  :-D  :-)

Honeslty, id drop the socket 754 board and get a socket 939 w/ cpu for $112.  Best money I spent so far.  :-)
-=-=-=-=-=-
Mine!  :-D

Yeah, newegg was the first place I looked. They have a nice socket 754 Athlon for 50USD, but in the shipping options I couldn't find any reference to shipping overseas.

And for some reason socket 754 Athlons seem to be unfindable here in NL.

As for a new mobo, nah, this one is only 1 year old.
