385714 2005-09-04 08:00:00 Thanks, thats a good article, things have changed a little since then (for example AMD's range) but it clears it up pretty much, It the Cache size that makes or breaks it. Bigger the better :) seems to be a common trend :D mattyjb (7993)
385715 2005-09-04 12:00:00 I'm sitting on a Celeron 2.2ghz @ 2.6ghz. They overclock well and I quite like it. I can play doom3 and GTA san andreas with that and a 9600pro at very decent frame rates (san andreas has everything at full except AA at 1280x1024 with no trouble). Their good if your not a hardcore gamer, and their quite cheap. For a computer that I have which is worth maybe $500 you can't beat it. Havn't really seen much with semprons, my brother has one but he doesn't play games on it :| DangerousDave (697)
385716 2005-09-04 12:23:00 Much better off spending a little extra coin and getting a Pentium based system over a Celery, in the world of laptops the price difference will be small, Can't see the logic in buying a system that is kneecapped at birth. Metla (12)
