Hi,
I am building a budget system and was wondering which CPU to buy. I will have an Asus P4SP-MX motherboard. It has a 533Mhz FSB.
I am wondering whether to buy the Celeron 2.4Ghz or the Celeron D 2.4GHz.
My motherboard should support the Celeron D because it supports the higher 533Mhz FSB but I am worried whether I am missing something here?
The Celeron D is priced cheaper (I am going by ebuyer) and yet it seems much better in comparison (Higher FSB and L2 cache). Will this be compatible with my Motherboard?
Also I was thinking of overclocking the normal celeron as it only uses 400Mhz FSB but will I be able to OC the Celeron D on my mobo? Or will the Celeron D outperform an OC'd Celeron anyway without overclocking?
Any help on this matter is appreciated
Thank you for your time
