C-Type or not??

[Mahimahi]

Lo guys
Just received my new AThlon 1200 and my A7V133.
The L1 bridges were closed!!
Do you think they gave me a C-Type or does it happen that they forget to cut the bridges?

you sure the L1 bridges are closed? they are kinda small so i suggest taking a closer look before you believe that theyre closed, because the chips are manufactured in assembly line type groups, I dont think they forgot to cut the bridges
Also, I think that if you look on the core of the processor, it will say AthlonC or something similar

If at first you don't succede, skydiving isn't for you.

Yep, I'm sure-sure. I couldn't believe my eyes so I put the processor under a microscope and the bridges are perfect golden lines without any interruption.

 

[Mahimahi]

Yes thats what I intend to do Wusy.
But I still have to wait until my monitor arrives, everything has been set up for the big start but one can't do much without a monitor ain't it

Lo Wusy
I ordered the Philips Brilliance 109P20 19"
1280x1024 @104Hz Flickerfree display.
0.24mm uniform grille pitch.
That's the reason I have to wait.

My Athlon 1200 is a B-type and also has closed L1-bridges!

Since all of you seem to know, could someone tell me what is an L1 bridge and what the problem is with it being closed?? I'm planing on building a PC myself and I'm kind of a newbie, so for me this stuff is good to know. And I think I'll be buying the A7V133 with a Duron 800, seems a good combo, does it?

 

[Mahimahi]

So, lesson to draw guys....buy your processor in BELGIUM here they haven't invented the laser yet to cut the bridges

 

[Mahimahi]

Lo AMR,
Them bridges being closed is not a problem but an advantage.
It allows to overclock the processor. I am not that much of a Goeroe and I dont want to make false or incomplete statements here, perhaps someone else will explain it to you.
About the A7V133 I bought it! so it better has to be good or I'll bash it into smithereens!
