Hello does anybody know if you can fix a amd cpu, i have bought a few bad amd athlon cpu`s and was wondering if they can be fixed , i know they are bad, i tried setting the correct setting in the bios and all that, proper heatsink,proper fan, tried using them in my working computer,msi 6380 etc, etc ,i see no signs of damage or burn`t markings so i was just curious, i have about 6 of them total ranging from 1600 to 2800. thanks any info would be much appreciated. take care..

They mught look ok on the outside but have they been zapped.... by static electricity..?

The only way to check is to test them in a working machine, bearing mind you will have to reset the CPU clocking and FSB speeds on the mobo for the CPU.
