Can you beat a free full Dual Pentium Pro AT System I found in the garbage?

I didn't think so...

It's a tie. I have a dual Socket 7 I "found." I just need 2 AT powersupplies.

Motherboard arrives tonight. Wont have her together until this weekend as i have 2 quizzes, three labs and a test this week. I know my memory might (ok will be) a problem, but we'll see.....)

That sounds like a very similar setup to my xeon rig. Should be very interesting how much performance buys you in the AMD camp versus the Xeon camp.

Good luck with the build and of course with the overclocking!

Idles 41C. Does anyone know if the K8T has any sort of SATA/AGP/PCI locks?
