Um... where on earth did you find a Athlon 64 2400? They didn't even make those, I don't beleive. I'm quite sure the 2800 is as low as they go, and that might just be 754...
Anyway, newegg has about 3 different versions of the A64 3000 for under $150. Take your pick

The processor will affect your framerates if you get a 2400. Like someone posted, the 3200 will be a much better friend to you, for overclocking and speed. |

PEOPLE! he said hes going FROM a 2400+... to something better!
 read the posts! lol yea a 3200+ will definitely be a huge increase in performance... probably a difference of like 15-40fps lol depends on the game.
