Found this and thought I would share. Kindof an interesting little piece of history. As most of you probably know, AMD has stopped production of chips based on the socket A "K7" architechture and this is the last one!

same here, those were some damn good chips for the standard PC, and even the pre-week 39's were good for OC'ing......they will be missed

awesome
; the XP chip is what brought me towards AMD personally, I was really fond of the early Thoroughbred cores, as well as the newer Bartons....awesome chips, both of em.
