OK, yesterday i got AMD ATHLON XP BARTON 2500+ that going stable like 3200+. Rather dont you want to know price of this processor. Its higher than price of new AMD Athlon 64 3500+ Venice BOX, 939 because this is the best cpu for boards with socketA and there are more people who want it than people who want to sell it. Se price is so high. Next mont i will buy Kingston 1024MB DDR 400MHz KHX3200A/1GB CL2 and after that second the same module and after that some HDD Happy

Same here, Kain. I need a second HD, probably going to get 250GB or more. I just got a 17" CRT from Vision Graphic and already have my eye on a 19" LCD from... from... uh... can't remember the name of the company, it's generic. $197 for a 19" LCD isn't bad, so... Big grin

I think I'm going to buy Rat Salad's gfx card when he gets his new one, too. Winking Oh, and I'm getting Spektra some gaming gear for Christmas, but don't tell anyone. Shhhhhhh...

but 2800+ is worst than 2500+ Its paradox. Barton 2500+ and 3200+ has the same multiplier. Difference is only between FSB speed. And many 2500+ processors are only 3200+ with lower FSB Happy Its a fact and its reason why is this processor so expensive:-) But its right that its terrible and very expensive. The price of this processor is only little lower than price of new 2500+ processor. But if youre buing new processor, you dont know if it can be overclocked so high or not. So price of 2500+ that going stable like 3200+ is a little counted from price of 3200+ processor
