Sempron vs Athlon XP

they are from Anandtech, try looking through the articles there. The exact comparison you want might not be there

I'm kinda curious to see benchmarks of all kinds comparing, for instance, a Mobile 2500 socket 462 with a socket 939 AMD64 3000.

Yes it'd be neat but a somewhat meaningless comparison given the wide spectrum of utilization covered there... too many variances

Of course if you pay an extra $20 and get the Athlon64-2800 then its all over .... damn Socket754s OC like a crazy mofo

I got the XP2500 in the end and i'm very happy with it! i have a dynamic overclock nob

on the front of the EZBUDDIE and i o'c it to 2ghz when playing games and its usually on 1.9ghz...

I just want to compare those two CPU's and platforms because those are the two I am deciding between.

A7N8X E Deluxe and;
Mobile 2500
using 200 mhz fsb and between 1.8 and 2.0 ghz speed.

vs

MSI Neo 2 Plat or Epox 9na3+ and;
939 AMD64 3000 winchester (0.90)

Both systems using the same 256 MB x 2 dual channel premium OCZ DDR.

Just curious about the two CPU's compared. Benchmark comparisons. Surly with the new AMD64 CPU's out there you would think there would be benchmark comparisons showing the improvements over the previous platform.

I strongly recommand Sempron 3100+ for gaming. This CPU is very different than the reast of the Sempron family. And beside, it is cheap.

Obviously the A64 will dominate across the board.

Those benchmarks were done in 2003 whent he A64s debuted .... the AthlonXPs are discontinued now.

1. Compared to the rest of the Sempron family its more expensive for the CPU. Compared to the rest of the Sempron family the mobo is more expensive
2. An Athlon64-2800 will pwn the Sempron3100
