2.8 or 3.0 ghz...&nbsp; it really doesn&#39;t matter. In 8 months they&#39;ll both be obsolete. Save the money and get ready to buy the computer after that if you wanna stay current.&nbsp; B)

I agree.

You mention that you&#39;d like to stay current for 3 years.

I think the only piece of computer hardware that has stayed current for that long is the floppy drive.

Maybe the ON/OFF button too. [/b][/quote]
Thats not what i mean i mean i want my computer to meet the minimum requirements for games/apps for atleast 3 years like this computer i can&#39;t run shit cuz it need like 700mhz processers

The highest end processors are a false economy. If you look at the price for an Athlon XP 2400+, it&#39;ll probably be about a quarter of the price of an Athlon XP 3000+, despite offering (theoretically) 80% of the speed.

Umm does it have a barton core?

No. If you want a cheap Barton, go for the 2500+.

But what does the core matter? It&#39;s the performance and features vs. price you should worry about - you should try to strike a balance.


I recently chose to buy a 2600+ processor, which enjoys the benefits of a 333MHz FSB while still remaining much cheaper than any other AMD processor with the same FSB.
Balance between power and price, you see?

They were different in the AT cases.
