AMD Processors

My 2600+ overclocked doesn't complain on the 5.2 (worked also with 
4.9).... Don't worry I don't use it a production server ;)

For the kernel configuration you can even optimize the compilation for 
such processors (5.x only) :

options CPU_ATHLON_SSE_HACK
options CPU_ENABLE_SSE

and also a special cpu type in the make.conf

/CPUTYPE?=athlon-xp/


I would think that the second one (CPUTYPE) is more critical than the 
first set of options (more multimedia oriented).
