If anybody's got one going spare after an upgrade or whatever, or knows where there are any for sale new (I can't find one), please let me know.
Thanks,

Wanted: Athlon X2 5050e CPU (1 Viewer)
- Thread starter RobNorthcott
- Start date
Why not get an athlon x2 235e. They have the same TDP (45 W), but are of a more modern architecture.

Mostly because I don't know if my board supports it. The last bios update added support for the 5050e (and others), but the later ones are not listed, so presumably would not be detected properly. If I can find a 5050e I can just throw it in and I know it'll work. Another possibility would be a late 5400+ or 5600+ Brisbane, but they're 65W.
Of course, if you have a source that says a 235e will work in my mobo (MSI K9N6 - see my system spec) then that's excellent...
(it's an AM2 board so I don't think it can use AM2+ or AM3 CPUs)

I have two amd5050e cpu's mounted in two of my pc's. If you volunteer to come by and exchange one of the CPU's with a 235e, you are most welcome to make the exchange here. Geography probably prevents that. Good luck in your hunt.

Ha! Thanks for the offer - as you say, rather a long way to go for a CPU 
Seriously though, although I'm not quite desperate enough to do a straight swap with a 235e I would give you a good price for a 5050e if you're willing to sell one and post it (and it would give you an excuse to upgrade!)

Thanks - I would have made you an offer, but I've just found a 4450e (got it yesterday in fact!) which is working nicely. My 3200+ occasionally struggled a bit under heavy use, but the extra core has made everything happy again

Ok, so perhaps a solution, but not the "right" solution. On the client, within media portal configuration, under TV settings, advanced options, I switched to UNC paths instead of the default RSS, and it's working very well. Sure I had to figure out the paths, but no big deal.
Maybe helpful for someone in the future. Thanks for the...
