    I'm struggling, it looks like a 939 chip ... Steve what's the top of the chip look like...?

    If you're lucky it's a FX-60 ... if you're not it's a Sempron

    [EDIT: your -> you're (doh)]

    FX60 has changed to evens, in celebration of its dualcore.

    2600Mhz, dual core, 1Mb cache each, multiplier unlocked.

    1 pin, 2 pins, 3 pins, ah darn I lost count.

    Either a 59/60, or you're planning an in-depth article into overclocking a S939 opteron.

    It's Sony/Intel's new breakthrough processor which resembles a S939 but is in fact totally different?

    OK, since we're getting ridiculous now (no offence Xaneden!):

    After all this, it had better be worth it.

    Is it the world's first musical processor?

    Does it lay eggs and make little baby processors?

    Can it talk?

    LOL now that would be a good trick, a genetically engineered race of little creatures that can live inside a s939 package and are very good at maths. whenever a new game comes out and your rig struggles to run it, just run a program that makes the critters reproduce!

    (bet Steve's wishing he'd never started this thread now lol)

    Well, some of you have got it right.

    Of course, that means many of you have it very, very wrong.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();
