    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).
