Eww, Celeron D?

The Celeron M's on the other hand are very nice budget processors, so much better then the Sempron's. After all, they are based off of the Pentium M.

If you think a Celeron is smooth, wait until you try a Core 2 Duo!

What are you talking about? Amd does have quads out but, they have their issues though. Im sticking with my Dual Core for a while. I dont do much gaming and the games I play work fine on my proc.

P.S. Has anyone tried they 3-core AMD proc? Im assuming it prob has alot of issues but, just wondering.

My mistake.

My next build will most definitely be an Intel build.
AMD's more expensive? LOL
