    although, with the 2400, the fsb is only 266MHz, i think, so you don't need 333mhz ram, you only need 266mhz
    You have a point, based my input on my Athlon XP2800 (333mhz) system.

    Who cares what you have, post not based on that. Keep criticism to yourself.

    Should review the whole story behind this before making your negative comments. -Wolfmight- had pc issues on a previous system, search and review that post. -wolfmight- sees what he has now as a fast machine vs. what he had.

    Umm, well I dont think your L2 Cache is 512Kb, I think its more like 256, as opposed to my 128......



    But likewise, who cares that you got a faster system? I mean more power to you that you finally got upgraded, but none the less........

    why do you have to rubbish wolfmight's comp just cos you have a faster computer (a celeron (lol)).
    look, this topic could get pretty overcrowded if everyone just said "hey, your spec is rubbish, mine is better..."
    wolfmight has just bought a new comp, and is very pleased with its spec.
    ok, so there are faster computers, but then who actually has the fastest computer available?
    who has all the best components in one package?
    i very much doubt anyone on this forum has the fastest computer available

    no disrepect meant to anyones comp

    Amp, you call my celeron crappy, but what kind of setup do YOU have?

  8. Software & Hardware   -   #38
    Athlon XP 2700+ 333MHz FSB
    ASUS A7N8X Deluxe
    512MB Corsair XMS3500 C2 RAM (Running 2-2-2-5 333MHZ)
    GeForce 3Ti200 64MB (209/500) (My only weak point, imo, and getting replaced soon)
    80GB Seagate 7200 rpm HDD
    420W Thermaltake W008R PSU

    my point was that the athlon 2400+ cpu is probably just as good as your celeron (albeit overclocked)

    Hehe, ya, well I didnt go COMPLETELY for performance, but I got the Celeron for 107 off of Newegg, and it did take 700Mhz of overclocking to finally make it respectible.

    I remember before I overclocked it, on PC Mark, I was running about the same scores as people with 1700+'s

    I admit it, I was abit ashamed.

    But yes, okay okay, more power to wolf, who finally got a good computer.

    And yeah, he might not even need a computer faster than that, it all depends on what you do with it. Just like getting 3700 DDR RAM, for say his computer, it would be stupid.

    But ya, I play UT 2003, Battlefield 1942, and Fifa 2003, so I do need the higher specs I suppose.

    you just need to think a bit more before you post.
    if you post things where you're basically saying "i've got better stuff than you", you most likely won't win anything but dislike.
    celerons are good value for money, but as you say, they take alittle bit of work to get them respectable in the performance area.
    just think a little more before you post and you wont go far wrong
