Athlon X2 5200+ AD5200OCK22GM Poss Unlock?
Hello Everyone,
I've just noticed this CPU listed on Scan's website in the UK:
http://www.scan.co.uk/products/amd-a...-cache-65w-oem
For a Crazy cheap £31.17!
CPU World Info:

As far as I can see this looks like it could be a locked Phenom II just like the batch of 5000+ AM2+ CPUs.
The reason I think this is that it has 2x 512MB of L2 Cache, just like those chips did... but its AM3 not only AM2+ and on the new C3 stepping also 45nm so it must be Phenom II / Athlon II Based... surly but if it was Athlon II it would have 2MB of L2 Cache and not one! I guess it could be a locked Athlon II X4?
This could be a real bargain chip if is really is a locked quad!
Has anyone else tried this?
Going to order one to play with I think :)
Anyone else with me?
Thanks,
Michael
