Recovered this chip from a the shell of a PC found in a skip in 2003.

Tried it out and it was working even though the heatspreader is heavily scratched.

I would recomend this CPU for a budget MAME pc. With a decent mother board and plenty of RAM this CPU will cope with most of the arcade games in MAME.

This processor on overall performance is slower than PII-350MHz.

After this cpu, I never used any AMD products, neither ATI nor their CPU.

This AMD was a rock solid CPU!!

This CPU kicked the hell out of all Pentium 2s!! Just check the benchmarks...

This is the first CPU I bought, It ran and booted windows XP very fast, I could play games like Deus EX, Quake 3 and Diablo 2 at 60fps and 1024 x 768 resolution using my MATROX G400 32MB card. Used it for many years! Awesome CPU!
