Just went through some upgrades and i have these parts left over and need them gone.


AMD 5200+ CPU (bare chip) - $45 shipped


MSI K9A2 CF-F 790X Crossfire Motherboard - $65 shipped

Newegg's MSI K9A2 CF-F v.2.0 - for price reference only as mine is the v.1.0 - though i'm not exactly sure what the difference is besides a bios change. UPDATE: Wow - thanks to Bigdaddy for the info and i did a little more research - this will not support 125w CPUs (actually had reports of boards bursting into flames :eek:). Some have reported heatsinks doing well - but i still wouldn't try this with a 125w processor (which is scary b.c that's exactly what i got it for and ended up using a different motherboard i stumbled upon instead). It's perfect coupled with the 5200+ though ;)!


SOLD!


Heat = TFM - almost triple-digits!
 
Bigdaddy - my board is a ver 1.0 - though i'm not sure what the difference is as everything seems the exact same except perhaps a different bios?

Anyway - i'll put on a link for ver 1.0 from MSI's website tomorrow... later today - as for right now, i'm WAY past my bedtime

version 1 will not support 125watt cpus. Version 2 has a heatsink on the power regulators.
 
Thanks Don! and thanks again Bigdaddy for more info - hopefully this is cleared up in the OP now - sorry for my ignorance on the product
