Advice needed for a noobie: Athlon XP 2800+ or P4 2.6ghz
|
Get the P4-2.6Ghz. Even with OCing the XP2800 is outdated (and abandonded by AMD). Of course im assuming this is a Northwood C processor you're considering. If not then AMD would be the route to go. (also this assumes you're not getting crappy mobos for either setups)
