Alright, I've very new at this sort of thing. I'm wanting to build my own computer for an A+ course I'm taking, and this'll be a first for me.
I'm looking at a couple CPUs for a my computer, but I'm not sure whether to try AMD or Intel. Two processors I'm looking at, and trying to figure out which would be the fastest for the best price are:
~AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3200+ (2.2Ghz), 512KB Level 2 Cache (Not sure about the FSB speed)
~Intel Pentium 4 (2.8 GHz), 1MB Level 2 Cache, 800 MHz FSB
It looks like the Pentium 4 is better, but I'm not sure if it's the best overall. If someone could help with this and maybe make suggestions, I'd appreciate it greatly.
