err no. you have to add the vat on which pushes it to just over 35 quid. then you slap on the £8.50 standard delivery of ocuk and the cpu is looking at almost 45 quid.

so no its far from 30 quid. :mad:

are you sure the cpu is dead..... its quite unusual for a cpu to just die one day.... my money is one something else

ajgoodfellow · 30 Apr 2006 at 19:21

The Celerons tend to be good clockers so I'd clock that to within an inch of its life

If you can get it up to 4.5 - 5GHz then it should be OK as a stop gap. It'll feel a lot slower than a 3.8GHz P4 though!
