Looking to buy a CPU off ebay... opinions please

Post by **ilumos** » Thu Jan 05, 2006 11:13 pm

I've been browsing around on ebay, and I've come across this CPU, AMD Athlon64 3500+, used condition with no bids, but, in the item description there's this:

"USED
WORKING

THIS CPU HAS 1 MISSING PIN, AS THE CPU IS WORKING FINE WE WOULD SAY IT IS JUST A STABALISER PIN."

What do you reckon, bullshit, dont touch it? or get a working CPU that nobody else wants cheap?

Thanks in advance

What the fuck is a STABALISER pin? I wouldn't touch that. Especially since the word STABALISER scares me.

A fucking CPU dosen't need a stabalizer pin! Must be pulling some serious g's around a corner to need one of those things.
