Upgraded my AMD Super Socket 7 system. Replaced my K6-III 400MHz with an AMD K6-2+ 550MHz.
My ASUS P5A-B Rev. 1.03 has no issues with it. Currently checking how much I can overcloclock it. 617MHz reached. Memtest detects the CPU incorrectly as K6-III. At least it is Memtest-stable for now.

AMD Sempron with Barton core. Full 512KiB 2nd level cache, but reduced FSB to 166MHz (effective 333MHz). Despite being named Sempron this is basically a great substitute for an AMD Athlon XP. Multplicator is 12 (Athlon XP 3000+ has a multiplicator of 13). Fastest Socket A Sempron.

Got an broken Sound Augigy 2 ZS with missing sound on one channel. Turns out there were missing components in the area around the amplifier chip. Since the second channel was working, I pulled out the datasheet and measured the components on the other channel and replaced the missing ones. Only had 0603 components at hand and the smaller 0402 ones which were the correct size.
It got a little crowded but it is working in rhe end

Starting to test some of mine graphic cards. Replacement of old thermal compound, cleaning the fans and have a go on some 3d marks. Currently working on entry/mid class NVidia GPUs
