You live near Texas the home town of AMD. I live in europe. Chance MPs are sold as XPs here is a lot smaller. Perhaps 1 at each 100 cpu's or so instead of 1 at each 2 there. Also i need to note that a few year ago when some reported certain cpu's to overclock very well, that out of the 10 tested cpu's here, *none* of them overclocked well. Somehow the quality of the cpu's of people of people who buy them now is different everywhere, depending upon place and time. If you have 1 cpu that works. logically the next serial number will have a high chance to work too. If you have 1 cpu that doesn't work, the rest won't work SMP either. >On August 07, 2002 at 17:09:22, Vincent Diepeveen wrote: > >>On August 07, 2002 at 12:22:24, ERIQ wrote: >> >>>wanted to know how to get xp's to run stable on dual mb. also which dual >>>motherboard is best and for what reason.
