sempron compatiablity

[Bud]

Im thinking of building a cheapy system looking at the sempron cpu's, any input on quality? also do I have to worry about certain mobo's that will not work with them?

Semprons are just renamed Thoroughbred B Core CPU with a FSB of 166mhz.Except for the Sempron 3100+ which is a 32bit only, 2.0ghz 256K Socket 754 CPU.

I've put 2 together for some folks who wanted totally CHEAP. So I went to Fry's who had a combo deal on sale with a Sempron 2400 and ECS KT333 board for $47.00. I added some PQI memory (always reliable for cheap), cheap 420MX vid card, cheap case w/ PSU, etc... and both work flawlessly. BTW, I built each box for a grand total of $316.00 including tax (@8.25%).
