AMD CPU
Hi
Hope this is right newsgroup I bought a mobo on ebay that claimed to have a 133 AMD Duron processor. Various system analysis programmes show a speed of around 850mhz. Have I been conned? Regards David |

Regards David I think you might be confusing the FSB with the CPU core freq. The FSB is probably 133MHz while the the core is 850MHz |

Really nothing to go on here. You bought a 133 cpu and it's running at 850MHz. Sounds to me like you got a good deal, except they didn't make any durons slower than 500MHz. Too be sure what you have you need to look at the part number on the cpu. You may have an 850MHz Duron or you may have a 1133MHz Duron, or you could have a 600MHz duron overclocked to 850MHz. No way of telling for sure without looking at the part number. -- Want the ultimate in free OTA SD/HDTV Recorder? http://mythtv.org http://mysettopbox.tv/knoppmyth.html Usenet alt.video.ptv.mythtv My server http://wesnewell.no-ip.com/cpu.php HD Tivo S3 compared http://wesnewell.no-ip.com/mythtivo.htm |

A Duron 850 should have an fsb of 100.

I think you better clear up somethings. Do you really mean you should have a 1.33 Ghz Duron rather than a 133 Mhz Duron? Or do you mean you should have a 1133 Mhz Duron? Yousuf Khan |

Various system analysis programmes show a speed of around 850mhz. Have I been conned? It sounds like you have your FSB set to 100 instead of 133 (assuming you meant you were supposed to get an 1133) 850=100x8.5. 1130.5=133x8.5. |
