Can't you reuse the cooler that came with your original processor with some 
new paste on it?

Not generally unless specified, it's usually the retail boxed ones that 
come with a fan.


That is a great price, I'd be tempted to get one myself at that price, 
especially since the review says it can be overclocked to 3.6Ghz! 
(although maybe on a standard cooler you might not get speeds like that).

This one is pretty good price wise, and they will do next day delivery for
very little as they are right next to DPD

[ubuntu-uk] AM3 processor

2011-08-12 Thread Daniel Case
I was wondering if anyone here has a spare - or knows where I can get, a
cheap AM3-socket processor? Mine recently gave up the ghost and I don't have
much money to replace it until the end of September, so I figured it was
worth asking here first.

I currently have a netbook (with Windows XP - ugh) plugged into my monitor,
the situation is getting desperate here! :P
