 |
|
You know when you buy a cheap Ebay scrap lot it always turns out to be a bunch of the same sspecs?
I recently bid next to nothing on a large lot of PII and PII mobile cpu since i didnt really have any at all. I figured I would keep one of each and trade the dupes....anyway received the lot of 25 and every single one of them was a different sspec!!! I couldnt believe it! |

I concur. I've been very fortunate using ebay and I'm very picky about sellers, but when it turns out good it's great. Only chip I have that i bought on ebay that i've yet to get to get to post is a mobile athlon 4000. I assume it to be the chip as sure out of all the boards I have tried, a dfi nf3 250gb would boot it! But alas I'll hold on til I've some more cash and hope to get another chip to try.
