    An ID and mobo info please


    Can anyone ID this AMD CPU have been everywhere and keep coming up with results that just don't quite match what I look for.
    I know it is a ?"Venice" but thats about it.

    Plus I have Gigabyte GA-K8FN9 Ultra board that I am rejuvenating with some SATA gear but I cannot find out what max speed CPU the board will support - Gigabyte site is just so slow and pedantic about screeds of numbers. Googling just comes up with forums that don't rally answer my simple query.

    However I do have the manual and this snip is in it does this mean that I can fit a 3Ghz or higher in this board? I will add the snips of the current CPU (LEBBE) and the one I had given to me by a friend - no name ID - I just want to know which is the best to fit.
    Thanks in anticipation

    That board is apparently at least 6 years old.

    Cant see my SATA HDD - Overclockers Australia Forums

    The Aussie guy at the above link appears to be using this processor in that board:

    The board appears to be socket 939, introduced in 2004:

    Surprised this would be so difficult to find...I simply entered ADA3000AIK4BX into Google and promptly got this:

    AMD Athlon 64 3000+ - ADA3000AIK4BX (ADA3000BXBOX)

    As for the Gigabyte board, the name is K8NF9 (you wrote K8FN9). Link here:

    To say it outright: yes, the board will support your Athlon 64 3000+. :)

    Ok


    Yeah sorry I did get the NF the wrong way round and yeah I got the ADA ref as well but didn't mean anything to me all I wanted to know was the speed of this CPU as 3000+ rated and 2000 real was / could be anything sorry I just didn't know.

    I have the machine fired up at the moment with the other CPU in place and it boots from a cloned 7 drive but I only get as far as windows 7 (have a dual boot on this drive) as it was just a spare drive that I was testing this machine up with.

    So I get no further than System Recovery Options - five options that get me nowhere might have to try another spare drive and see what happens. It's only a recycled machine but as it had SATA I thought it would be worth a try to use as a tester.

    Well, the Athlon 64 is a single-core CPU...suffice it to say it won't be anywhere near "fast" even for simple tasks. Not by today's standards.

    Hum


    Ok Corazon I know you're right just that it looked like the machine had been well looked after and a shame to junk it. Plus like I said it would have made a nice tester or even a freebie for my mates young fellow as they don't have much disposable income, and it only cost me $10 from the wreckers / recycle centre and the RAM and stuff I have got from other recycled machines oh well you win some you lose some

    So what's the problem with it...? Did you install a fresh OS?

    Well


    I didn't do a fresh install Corazon I being a bit simple thought I could just put one of my cloned drives in just to see that the machine actually works - which it does and reasonably quickly.

    I just keep getting back to that normal start up lets me sign in and then it goes to that screen with those five options system repair memory diag etc. Finally after running a system repair it ends up with an error message similar to one that you get with an email fault - I think it was something like error 0x80070005:Access denied.

    Hey look it's not worth the hassle of trying to fix it just looked like a nice machine to start with and although I have a fresh OEM 7 here I was keeping that for my next build.
