I'm getting ready to upgrade my current PC but it's
been almost 3 years since I built my last system, and
around 2 years since I stopped following technology. I
want to upgrade to Mid-High end AMD Dual Processor system
but I'm not sure what to get. I plan to only buy one
processor for now and put in a second when I get enough
money. My question is what dual processor motherboad and
what CPU should I get. I want a fast CPU but not
neccessarily the fastest. Basically I want the fastest one
I can get before the price launches up hundreds of
dollars. Ya know, the fastest for the best money. So
something under or close to $400 would be my guess. As far
a motherboards go I want one that is good and supports
dual processors. Any advice you can give is really
appreciated.
Oh, what is the major difference between the AMD
Athlon64 3200+ and an AMD XP 3200+? Is there a special
type of processor that is made for dual processing?
Thanks for all the help!!
