race_snooze Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Hey guys I am in bad need of a 3ghz or higher AMD socket A CPU, mine blew up and dont have the cash to buy a whole new PC. Thought I would ask here first as we are mostly all Nerds here lol. I am included in that comment. So if anyone has an old socket A chip they would like to pass the buck on let me know. So sick of trying to run and OS (Ubuntu) on a 700mhz Duron lol to the max. Thanks guys!!
