Hello ! , Welcome My Friend ! , How Are You? Going Good ? :)
I love how the northbridge chip looks like a k-6
Do never forget where your roots are 😅
I thought the same thing, hah!
It’s probably the same package or at least heat spreader
Cool system! So glad the mainboard was repairable.
Contact cleaner easily removes those pink, sticky, bubblegum-like thermal pads Asus used back then.
I love how some old AMD northbridges of the Athlon MP and early Opteron era look like little K-6s :-)
PNY liked that stuff too. I had a 6200 with it.
I had the exact same configuration !
I first used a 6600GT, but on Linux there was an incompatibility between the card and OpenGL, so I changed it for a 6800.
The goal was playing Far Cry :)
I used 2 Athlon XP 1800 modified.
I loved this computer ! But it was a bit noisy.
My first dual CPU was a BP6 with 2 Celeron 433 and a Voodoo3.
It's almost like the previous owner didn't know that paste goes on the Die only.
I wanted to say the same
I knew of some people who would use some over the little ICs around the Die which just made a splurged mess and glued the cooler on..no need. some also used a putty which was better since those foam load distribution pads were crap xD
Great Video! It is funny to see the DIE in the chipset was more protected than the one in the CPU
I've been waiting for this video for years. Thanks pal.
for the pink stuff on the chipset i recommend heating it up a little and then it wipes off with a paper towel
thank you for saving this technology, your voice is relaxing as well
Oldschool 2 CPUs system is so interesting
What a cool board! AGP Pro and 64-bit PCI and everything.
"saving dual socket 462" doing gods work my friend, now lets see it in a finished (all asus) build with that asus panel 🤞😉
хорошее железо тех лет, по которому только слюни пускать могли. 😥😥😥
аж "олдскулы" свело, отличное восстановление, еще и двухсокетной системы 👍
Back then, I would have lusted for a dual-cpu board, given the multitasking capabilities. That said, _nowadays_ I think if I were to get another SOcket A motherboard at all, I'd specifically want one that has the 4-pin EPS plug _that works._ The Abit KW7 I had before shipping it off did have said power plug, but still refused to boot with a PSU that had any less than 20A on the 5V rail, even though it's implied that such a power plug was meant to divert CPU power from the 12V rail. If anything, a dual-CPU Socket A board probably needs that 4-pin (or even 8-pin ) EPS connector more than a Pentium 4.
what a lucky guy !! I've spend years trying to get my hands on this motherboard with no luck . extremely rare to find on Ebay , and too expensive when it's avalaible , around $300
Great rescue! I have the Tyan version the Thunder Pro dual Athlon MP but needs a recap.
😍 I would LOVE a Dual Socket 462!
they are rare and overpriced
Liked these AthlonMP cpus and boards except NOSSE
And I thought that the brown slot is the x6 slot due to the absence of the white part.
Good cleaning job on the Athlons. I built a dual 2600 MP system in 2008 - I spent a fortune on it, I have no idea why considering what I could have built for a fraction of the cost with much more power. That chip really looks like a K6
Probably needed ECC!
LOVELY MP Processor
white ceramic heatsink compound i havent seen that since 386/486 days, thats all its good for.
what a cool system dual Athlon MP very nice
Молодец👍
oldschool but cool...😍👍
I had the next version up of this board. It was a bit glitchy, but really liked dual channel ram. Had a really nice set of 512meg high speed DDR for it that got stolen which still shits me to this day.
What? Did someone open your computer to steal the RAM? Did not exactly get what you meant.
@@BilisNegra Oh i had the machine offline for a bit while i was building other stuff, i think i was playing with a dual socket Pentium 3 board, so the ram was on my desk for a week or two. Then one day i came to work and the ram had "dissapeared"
@@colinsmith6340 I see... What a bummer.
@@BilisNegra Yea, it was really expensive DDR 1 400 that had ridiculously low timings. Cost me something like 500 bucks.
I have an idea of who nicked it, but.. what are you gonna do. I think it was GEIL ram.
i picked this same board up for 10$ with dual athlon mp 1800+ and some blown caps about 6 months ago i sent it out for repairs a little while ago. got it back and i booted it up for the first time today and installed win xp a radeon 9800 pro and 2 gb ram. need to find a case to put it in now
Фатальный недостаток конфигурации - крайне медленный контроллер памяти. Если сильно захотеть, заморочиться и найти athlon xp 2600+ на ядре thorton, замыканием мостиков включить 512кб кеша и поддержку многопроцессорности, то можно очень сильно удивиться цифрам в бенчмарках, производительность почти как у pentium d и ранних core 2 duo, но увы и ах, медленная память, и нехватка инструкций sse2 сокет а сгубила.
asus retro!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤💙💙💙💙🤍🤍🤍🤍💙💙💙💙💯💯💯💯
Cool
1:34 - I recommend Nitro thinner to remove such hard thermopads - thermoglue.
0:40
Always nerve-racking, did it countless time and always, always one slip from disaster.
Butt this configuration is dream build.
I have something very similar but I could never get my board to post, and I think it was because of power supply incompatibility long ago. I'm curious what power supply you were using here in this video to get yours to work? The other possibility is that my motherboard may have always had a defect of some kind, I'm really not sure and I haven't revisited checking it out in many years... however, it was purchased brand new so I don't think it should have anything wrong with it all. I will try it out again sometime when I can get to it because I always wanted to make a server out of it. Thanks for the video and all the info contained within it!
LIKEEEE!!!
Always liked amd k7 systems more than intel on this era, at the time i went from duron800, a thunderbird then a thoroughbred B jiuhb that i still have and still works.
Currently, my closest retro system is a barton 2600+ running W2K.
Can that run dual bartons?!? :D
PCI-X slots too? Beast motherboard
5900 vs 7600 points, Gainward wins! really beauty of a card
Nice preview!👍👍
good video, good repair, another board and on top of that dual amd!!! greetings. From Madrid. Spain. 🇪🇸
Would you be looking for upgrading the cpus/overclocking them?
Basically, you can pencil mod any Athlon to AthlonMP 😆
The low FPS on HL2 its VGA or CPU bottleneck?
yep probably because Palominos are without SSE2 + to high game settings
@@RETROHardware oh yes, sure.
what the maximum FPS you cant get with lowest settings?
and what about 2x PIII-S 1.4Ghz vs these? i would love to see it.
Damn, seems like every package gets drop kicked your way.
imo a weird era for this hardware. Too "new" / "fast" to be vintage, too slow to be useful for most peoples expectations today. As a person from the era, it's nostalgic, sort of except most of what is memorable from that era is still technically playable on todays hardware (unlike older stuff, which most has been emulated at this point, if not all of it). Not by any means knocking the video or anything, I just giggled a bit seeing a 6800 being saved. I remember when Oblivion came out and I was playing it on a 7800GTX
too funny ... the last days i was playing on my MSI K7D with MP1800+ ;)
i had a k7d master i could never get to behave lol
Best choice to repair that Mainboard. Im also using Socket A Barton 3200+ together with GF 6800. Good Combination. But the Barton is not strong enough.
Much thanks for that video 👍
I also have a video of mine.

I passed up a tyan dual socket A board like 2 days ago. I was thinking the power requirement must be ridiculous for dual socket A's. What amps would be needed on the 5v? I should've bid on that I think. It went so cheap.
Thats not good. I ran a Tyan Thunder Pro on an Antec 550 watt EPS power supply but it has died. I think it had 30 amps on the 5 volt rail. The manual says it can't use newer PSUs because they will damage the board. Was going to test it with a working period correct Delta PSU from an old dual P4 Xeon server but it probably needs a full recap also.
@@AsurmenHandOfAsur That sucks. I figured 30A would be good for like a single cpu, but I don't know. I actually tested an old antec sp500 to decide wether to bid or not. It had 35A and was probably one of the first modular power supplies. Damn thing exploded and gave some flames. Feels bad. i checked it out and decided it wasn't repairable.
13:49 isnt that PCI-X slot? isn't it so rare?
PCI 64bit
How did you manage to install HL2 episodes on XP? Via a steam emulator? Been trying for a few years to get this to work (I’m jealous! 😂)
offline version
1:32 - If You find hard getting old toothpaste removed try to use WD-40. Just spray it lightly onto it and wait for few secs. It may take few attempts to clean fully but way easier & cleaner than using a nail :D
Hey man, what we can do with this stock of thousands of k6 heat spreaders?...
-Hold my bear.....
I remember the day when the north and south bridge ruled the world and having 512 MB's of ram meant you were a absolute Baller...
Ah yes, socket a amd
Has no thermal guard, and very fragile
Promo*SM 🤭
does your 6800 unlock pipelines?
Leadtek don't know, not necessary try it, will keep how is it like LE version
