Go up one level in this thread


      The Athlon will be better. However, the Pentium4 is a good
   overclocker, from what I hear. The P1.5 will easily overclock
   to 1.8Ghz, and run cool at that speed.
      A word of warning.If you go for the Pentium4 don't get it with
   an Intel Motherboard, because you won't be able to overclock it.
      Whatever computer you buy, you're going to have a mid range
   machine in one year, and a dinosaur in two.
