    Which Sempron? The 130nm one or the 90nm ones?

    yeah, there's 90nm 2600, 2800, 3000, and 3100 models. And 130nm 3100 model

    I was pretty happy with mine, it ran nearly as fast the 3200+ I replaced it with (The Sempy went 2.5+ and the 3200+ runs 2.6 with a Zally7000ALCU)

    I sent it to a friend to review along with the DFI LP and Crucial Ballistic PC3200 to test against his clawhammer 3400DTR (1mb cache)

    Surprisingly, when both were set to 1.8GHZ the Sem:banana::banana::banana::banana: wins almost every bench.

    They OC pretty much like any other Newcastle core, a few lucky ones with realy good cooling can reach in the 2.7GHZ range, but average is in the 2.4-2.6GHZ range.

    I used Crucial Ballistix PC3200 at CAS 3-3-3-10 for up to 275FSB and 3-4-4-10 up to 300FSB, after that it would crap out.

    I used something like 1.75v core, 1.7v NB 2.9v Mem, and 3X for LDT and a Oscar Bios.

    Oh, and the Sempron 2600+ someone mentioned is not socket 754, they shouldn't be compared here.

    Yes, it's 754. There are 2600+, 2800+, 3000+ and 3100+ S754 Semprons based on the Winchester 90nm core, but with disabled L2 cache. Those seem to be the best deals at the moment. I'm tempted to buy one, but I also need a fairly overclockable mobo.

    I do remember seeing they were going to be coming out down the road a bit.
    I didn't think they were shipping yet, has someone here tested one yet?

    Nice to see the review though, tanks dude

    go for one with 256k cache as theres some 128k versions floating about, 2.5ghz should be a reasonable estimate on mid - high air cooling, there quite good chips these semp's, a friend compared one to an AXP and clock for clock the sempron usually won

    Opty 144 0546FPMW @ 2.8ghz
    MSI K8N Neo 2
    2 x 512mb OCZ Platinum Rev. 2 TCCD
    ATI X800 Pro @ 570/1200
    Plus some other metal fings...
    Will do me till Conroe

    Just built the Sempron 2600+ for a family member - at stock vcore it went from 1.6 to 1.8 without a problem - prime and Super PI stable. Any higher and it would randomly reboot. Used G.Skill 2 x 256 LA kit. I wanted to be sure it was 100% so I left it at 1.8Ghz, after reading the Xbitlabs review I was expecting more, but the machine was fast and wasn't half bad for an $80 CPU with cooler.

    i7-2600k @ 4.8Ghz 1.38v L044A892
    ASUS P8P67 LGA
    16GB G.Skill Rip Jaws DDR3 1600Mhz Memory
    1/2" ID Masterkleer, Swiftech MCP-655, Thermochill PA120.3 Rad, XSPC Rasa, MCW-60

    What Motherbaords are you using with these 90nm Semprons? My Chaintech VNF3-250 is NOT cooperating with my new 2600+ Sempron. For some reason I cant change the CPU Voltage! The options inst even there for some reason... (10/19 Bios... So it should be)

    Anyway, Pretty dismal results so far.. Only Stable to 1.76Ghz (From 1.6) Stock Voltage.... Gonna play some more tonight to see whats up, try some different Bios'..... Ordered a DFI UT and a Arctic Freezer though just in case....

    I just got a 2600 w/128k cache and it runs fine if it's not for the fact that only half of my RAM is recognized....

    Anyway you have to use the 07-29 bios to get voltage adjustment. I'm running 300FSB with RAM at 400Mhz without breaking a sweat. Good deal to get my VNF3-250 to stop collecting dust as a paperweight :-)
