Athlons :)

That'll sure help AMD's inventory picture for the next couple of quarters.

<"After talking with FIC, they've let us know that their SD-11 motherboard is incompatible with AMD's Athlon 650 processor">

thats no major problem
as it will only be ONE - 1 - speed grade affected by this (650)

the 700 MHz has the same power consumption as the 600 Mhz model..wich works 100% on the FIC.

So this is the most odd situation I ever have seen in motherboard / cpu environment.....
