[Face50]

Title says it all. I have £100 to spend, building a new gaming system, whats my best buy if I want to stick to the XP range? (Taking into account reliability, and simplicity of use).

Thank you for your help x

Well if he's looking for an AMD Athlon XP line processor i would hope he has a Socket 462 (A) lol.

What is that currency translate to in USD? Like $125?

Also, are you looking for best STOCK performance, or which has the best overclocking abilities (which will give you the best performance?) Really asking, are you overclocking or not?

lol, i was thinking of athlon 64 for some reason £100 is about $180 US

wow...thats plenty for an XP line processor.

For a socket A processor I can't see why you would need to spend more than $100

it runs pretty cool and has all the multiplier unlocked. Ive overclocked it 400mhz and have barely incurred any heat. Also uses little voltage. Extremely oc friendly.
