AMD SEMPERON
Apr 7^th, 2005, 4:39pm

Are these CPUs backward comapable with the Athlon Thunderbird Barton SKT A ones?

I don't have a '64' board and my old 1.2GHZ is getting tired.

I'm running an ASUS A7N8X Deluxe which was released in 2003, and was thinking about getting one of these new types.
I've been to the AUSUS and the AMD sites but it was all way over my head!

I've lost touch with the hardware side of things over the last couple of years.

Any tips/hints/links gratefully recieved.

TT

I've just read that AMD have stopped making the Socket A Athlon so I had better get mine upgraded while distributor stocks last.

I've managed to source some AMD Athlon stuff from a couple of dealers and am awaiting further info. Thanks TT
