Nah, that's totally respectable in my book. I'd consider bronzing mine. Maybe we can start a group [buy] bronze for old CPUs to get the price down?

I still have my BH6 that i bought with my 300a ... though its running a 533a@800 now ....

 

[BoberFett]

Whoa, how could I forget. My home server is still running a dual 300a @ 450.

 

[Jinny]

my main system is still a 366 at 525mhz.

Classic memories, 300A - 450mhz magic, as good as a P2-450 but much much cheaper.

Then, Celeron II 566 - 850mhz magic...

Then Athlon 1ghz to 1.333ghz ... magic

Then P4 1.6A to 2.1Ghz instantly .... (i'm a wuss, chip can do more)

Overall, that silly 300A started it all for me.

My Malaysian Celery 300A is humming along nicely at default voltage @450.
Its a mail server now
We had some good times together....

no... but i still have a 366a running at 550, of all processors (o/c or not) i've had, its been the most reliable.

Mine's in the garage on a BH6. Need a case so I can maybe play linux on it. Now running 1300 1400 and 1900 Athlons.

My roommate has one that he still uses... at 300MHz.

*/me smacks roommate*

 

[spanky]

i have one.

 

[DaiShan]

Heh I have one right here actually, I have it in my FS thread, mobo died on my and was out of warranty, so rather than wasted any more money I am selling it

 

[Geekbabe]

I have such fond memories of the C300a/BH6 combo I got from Russ,that bad boy really thought it was a PII450,it ran flawlessly for me and is still running flawlessly to the dude I sold it to

I've still got a 300A happily running at 450mhz. It's in my wife's machine. Still have it in an Abit BH6 mobo. Bought that combo 3 1/2 years ago and it's been running damn near 24/7 crunching RC5 blocks ever since I put it together. Funny thing is it never would do 464 or 504, but it LOVES 450.

 

[Triumph]

Sheesh, you people... This 300a@450 is my MAIN MACHINE. My only other machine is a 166@200. It's plenty fast enough. You all are traitors to the 300a!!!

 

[Angrymarshmello]

I never got to play with a 300a.....tried the 366 (never could get it to post at 550, only 458), still running a 566 @ 892 now (flaky @ 950)

 

[duke]

Still have a dual 300a @ 464 currently running redhat 7.3

 

[mithrandir2001]

I'm running the next best thing from that Celery era: a 533A o/c'd to 800 via the same 66 -> 100MHz FSB boost.
