which one

Now im at a loss here, the AXP was sold, though the 478 works again. it boils down to which overall will offer me the more enjoyable experince.

Celeron 330 2.66ghz/6800

AMD AThlon64 3500/8400GS

the athlon will be faster in cpu, but the celeron would probably play games better. you could probably sell the celeron system and get enough for a cheap x1900 or 7900gt which would wallop that gs

depends what you are wanting to do with your computer, personally i would go with the Celeron 330 2.66ghz and Geforce 6800, but if you need more processing power obviously go with the AMD Athlon64 3500 and Geforce 8400GS.

3500+ is 2.3ghz? I'd pick that setup... unless that celeron has HT enabled. I don't remember if they even had the option though...

candle_86 · Sep 2, 2008

well the celeron system is fully built, need a hard drive and DVD-Drive, it has a CD-RW in it right now, and everything else there, and i have an extra 512mb of DDR400 i can toss in it. What would it be worth though?

the 3500 is 2.2ghz

Its for WoW/CSS/Combat Arms

just thinking the local shop has a 7950GT used for 80 bucks, maybe they'd trade me, not sure.

The celly clocks to 3.4 on the board its one, does that make a diff? In reviews ive seen 3.8 is needed to match a P4 3.0

Eh... it's not gonna be anything exciting, but either of them should run those games without a problem. Just for the sake of being current, I'd go with the 8400GS. Drivers will update longer than the 6800. I know what that feels like as I just got rid of my 9600pro back in march. lol. New drivers were still being written that effected it's performance.

Ah, I figgered that much. I've got a 3ghz p4 HT sitting on my dresser. Buddy of mine brought it over for some reason or another and never took it back.

Very odd fellow he is. :wtf:
