I'm thinking about upgrading my CPU and I'm looking to see if there is any interest out there in buying my 2500 that I will be replacing? I would move it down to Jack's PC, but that would mean I have to get a new MB, so I'd rather not bother. I don't OC my CPUs and I've only been using this one for about 4 months.

I doubt yours is, but some of the Barton 2500 were multiplier unlocked. My original one is but Eric's wasn't. Something to check if/when you buy Brent's. You can tell in the BIOS if you are able to change the number from (11.5x166 to 12.5x166) or 2500 speed vs 2800 speed.

Cool, nice processor - extra cache really does make a difference.

FedEx tried to drop my new one off today, but no one was home, so I'll get it tomorrow.
Joe, I'll ship off the 2500 as soon as I swap it out.
