I don't know much about AMD models but the FSB speed and cache amount suggests it's very a low end and/or obsolete processor. It may be second hand h/w, which isn't terrible, but you'd better hope the host has replaced the mechanical parts such as the fans and hard drive.
Another possibility at that price is that the bandwidth is oversold, you'll never be hitting your head on the 10Mbps ceiling because lots of other customers are fighting you for net bandwidth.
Post back here in a month or two and let us know what happens.  |
The semptron is similar to the intel celeron i have had many boxes on the alphared network never had an issue of bandwith being oversold.
a 10 meg port kind of sucks tho but for that price its not bad.
