Unlocking the Athlon XP's

**Xeven** · November 13th, 2001

Okay speed freakers!

here's how to unlock the Athlon XP's .. Releasing the Athlon XP .. nice.. and messy..

**Xeven** · November 13th, 2001

Ok guys, better polish off your nail polishing skills!

**Xeven** · November 13th, 2001

there you go! nice, prim and proper!

Fou-lu · November 13th, 2001

Yeah, I've seen that. And it's really messy this way. I've seen with grafite, and if you make any mistakes you just erase it with a rubber

**Xeven** · November 13th, 2001

the pencil trick doesn't work with xp's tho, that's why you have to learn to use nail polish!

**Shiori** · November 13th, 2001

Xev where can I find a good computer parts store here?

**Xeven** · November 13th, 2001

man, your school is right next to them..

, dreamchum along quirino, then there's www.rsuncomputers.com (also along taft) then www.pcbodega.com then there's www.villman.com and also www.pcx.com.ph there are more but at least with these you can have some pricelists online, my fave is rsuncomputers btw.. coz you know.. ehehe..

**Shiori** · November 13th, 2001

medyo mahal pa rin yata sa rising sun eh..... I bought some parts at dreamchum before, but they never honor their advertised prices at buy n sell.

For example:

say, athlon xp 1.6 at 10thou....aba, okei! so i go there.....

...well, well, the price just jacked up to 12.5 thou!

I show 'em the advertisement, but they simply point to "prices and specifications subject to change" disclaimer.

...but i only bought the friggin' buy n sell paper an hour ago!

**Xeven** · November 13th, 2001

i think rsuncomputers is reliable, they sell at exactly the same price as they advertise and also with the pricelist at the website.. they have an atlon xp 1600+ for P7900.. btw. I've had a good experience buying from them.. bought a rig last month or so as a gift for my nephew..

also i had the same experience with dreamchum, those morons advertised a cd drive as 1700 when i went there they charged me 2000, and i never went there ever again..

get the kta3l epox its quite good for the cheap price and only 700 bucks diff from that crap redfox.. of course there are still better one's but your not into tweaking rig's up to kazzoot! anyway.. so its okay.. or howbout the ath1.2gig seems a better deal just a couple of hundred pesos diff..

**Shiori** · November 13th, 2001

How about the Duron 850?

**Xeven** · November 13th, 2001

do you want me to murder you right now?

**Shiori** · November 13th, 2001

Raising money is tuff when you're just a college kid with a demanding girlfriend.

**Shiori** · November 13th, 2001

Hmm....

Trade-Ins and Upgrades:

Pentium 233-333 to AMD Athlon 1000 266Mhz

its a con coz you'll get this : AMD Athlon 1000 266Mhz with Elite motherboard - P7770, its like saying your current system is worth only 1000 pesos!

**Shiori** · November 13th, 2001

dammit! i thought so! but then again, I wouldn't have any use for that piece o' junk when i replace it....i still have an old Pentium 90 in the house somewhere.

well how about this one: (not a trade-in deal)

AMD Duron 850 Mhz with Redfox R7VKD
Price: P 6,150.00

OR

Intel Celeron 850 with PC Partner 898
Price: P 5,850.00

...whaddaya think?

**Xeven** · November 13th, 2001

well if i have to choose between those two i'll choose the Duron course, the celeron is imho crap..

hey, add 1500 bucks and you've got the gig rig!

**Shiori** · November 13th, 2001

7770....hmmm.....maybe I could manage that, but then again, I don't usually run apps that need a lotta power like 3D studio max or Autocad....I just use VB, maybe C++, and Winamp.

oh, and VGS too.

then again, my bro's a freshman in architecture....maybe I can convince my parents to support me in this!

...uh-oh. I haven't even thought of the video card!
