Manufacturer AMD - Thoroughbred
Model Number XP2400+
CPU Speed (MHz) 2000
Format Socket A

Now people who read P&M will know im pretty p*ssed wih this , but i wanted to know ether Thoroughbred was any good?

and do you think i should get a 2700+? and would that be worth it? and if anyone knows the speed of a 2700+?

and if i was to Overclock the 2400+, what powerfull fan would any of you reccomend

EDIT: little more info they gave me:-

Pentalpha Ultra Quiet Socket A / 370 / 7 Heatsink & Fan up to XP2800+.

Does this meen i can clock it up to a 2800+? and still stay save, they say they havnt got any Arctic Silver 3 paste on it, hers what they said when i asked them "and do you use good quality thermal paste (ie. Artic Silver)?":-

No, the thermal pad is more than enough for this bundle, on the high end
Bartons, we would use the best
heat sink and Artic silver 3.

So would i need to apply some Artic Silver to it, to be on the safe side, or is it really just for Bartons.
