OC Modshop have thrown up their review of Speed Strip SSA-1 which is a small tool that can unlock the internal multiplier of your AMD Athlon XP CPUs based on the Thoroughbred and Barton cores. Speed Strip, LLC is a new company that develops overclocking products. This Speed Strip SSA-1 is designed to unlock AMD Athlon XP CPUs that have either a Thoroughbred or Barton core. The best thing about this product is that it is simple to install and can easily be removed for any reason. Most motherboards these days are able to unlock the multiplier on Thoroughbred or Bartons with no modification to the CPU whatsoever. This is possible with most if not all KT333, KT400, nForce 2, and KT600 motherboards. There are some motherboards however that do not allow you to change the multiplier within the BIOS if the CPU is not physically unlocked. In the scenario where the motherboard will not automatically unlock your CPU this product would be very helpful.
