AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ Manchester 2.2GHz 2 x 512KB L2 Cache Socket 939 Processor - OEM

[Jay]

I thought Manchester had 512kb L2 cach (2x256) whereas Toledo has 1MB cach (2x512).

toledos has 2 x 1mb cache, mancherters have 2 x 512mb.

but there are toledos like the 4200 that have half the cache disabled.

DANG! 512MB cache!

Wow, the die size on that chip must be larger than a dinner plate!

I'm currently running an FX-55 that I got last year from the Egg for $119 on a crazy sale, would I see any difference with this X2 chip over the FX-55 (for the better I mean) or have I maxed out the socket 939?

 

[Bulldog13]

How does this compare to an opteron 165 and can i use the same HSF for it ?

 

[Nessism]

Got my Manchester core 4200 at 2.5 right now - same speed as my old 3700 single core was running at. I'll crank it up further over the weekend when I have time to play around so far.

BTW, socket is the same as the OP 165.

How far did you get?

I have a 1.8GHz Winchester single core, looks like a good upgrade.

Thanks

now $59.99 with no code needed.

Sweet deal for a pretty fast cpu.

free t-shirt deal is long dead too.

Perhaps, Just perhaps, when you're losing $500M/quarter and your dealers are telling you their's demand for S939 CPU's and you have the 90nm capacity . . . then you dig out the old recipe and make some S939 X2's!!!

Stranger things have happened.

this is exactly what i bought it for. my brother has a winchester 939 3000+ and i figure seeing as that was the slowest 939 non sempron, he would get a good year at least out of a $60 upgrade...


i just wish pc3200 was as cheap as ddr2 now and he'd be all set for a year or more.

 

[whitelight]

i'm able to run my 4200+ at 2.6ghz, stock voltage. it gets up to 2.8, but at 1.45V. unfortunately, my hsf isn't good enough to keep it running at that speed.

 

[onelove]

back to $63.50

yeah the toledo 3800 4200 and 4600 all had disabled cache.


amd then went to all 512x 2 mancherster dies except opterons because the die size savings.

I bit, still running a winnie 3000+ w/ a x800gto2. now to find a nice video card upgrade...

 

[Nessism]

Wanted to post a small update regarding the chip I received. Runs fine at 10.5 x 250 = 2.625 Ghz @ 1.40 volts. Passed Prime for several hours with a max temp of 48C (using XP120 cooler with slow fan). 11 x 250 was a no go - Prime errors although it worked fine for surfing and such. I think I'm just going to stand pat at 2.65 for now, it's a nice upgrade from a single core at 2.5. Trying to resist the temptation to upgrade my entire system for a while longer.

Mine booted right up @ 250fsb with no tweaking at all.
AMD A64 x2 4200+ OEM Hit 2740 on AIR without trying (YMMV) with THIS Arctic Cooling Freezer 64 Pro

Mine booted up fine but there were errors in Prime so I lowered the multiplier to 10.5. Decided to take advantage of the second core by doing some video editing...only to have the system crash. Lowered it some more and having another go. A little disappointed but what do you expect for $60?

 

[MonKENy]

how much better is it than my current one, and it will run in my MB correct?

 

[kcporsche959]

How big of an upgrade from a A64 3200+ would this be?

I got my X2 4200+ before this deal but I received similar results using the same heatsink/fan.

thread title needs update - now $65.99.

However, the x2 2ghz toledo chip is $55.99. for ten bux less, I bit on that one. http://www.newegg.com/Product/...p?Item=N82E16819103052

boo for newegg using UUPS!
sometimes ok,
sometimes misrouted/late (this order),
sometimes never arrives at all (last time I ordered Newegg, UUUPS claimed delivery, but it never was delivered & they had to reship).

remember the good ol days when Newegg used FedEx? alas.
