Ofcourse, I only started doing that when I became a total nerd.

Still have a beautiful pic of my X2 3800/Toledo (disabled cache chip) that I had to search for, it was actually a very good clocker... I paid close to $400 bucks for that chip but it was good for a 750Mhz OC...
What? Are you a nerd? What sane people does not take pictures of their cpus?? The batch number is one of the reasons to buy cpus

I'd be happy to run your 9500 for you
