AMD Athlon XP 3000+ Processor
Strengths: It's an AMD Barton, 333FSB
Weakness: none
I replaced an 1800XP Palomino running stable at 2.25 Ghz. with this 3000XP and noticed much faster boot-up and 0 screen freezes in my heavily loaded system at 333FSB or 364FSB. Haven't tested it extensively yet but I have noticed it runs 2 to 4 degrees cooler than the 1800XP at their stock Mhz. and overclocked lightly (200Mhz.) using the same HSF. This is probably due to the lower factory core...
