The 90nm one is sckt 939 and runs @ 1.8 ghz. The 130nm one runs @ 2.0ghz and is sckt 754. Both have 512L2 but the 939 is dual channel.

If your into overclocking the 90nm is better.

The two cpus dont use the same socket so you'll need a different mobo for each one.

Signature (up to 200 characters). You may use <font color=blue><b>Markup</b></font color=blue> in your signature<P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by coylter on 11/23/04 07:27 AM.</EM></FONT></P>

By the way both CPU are 3000<b>+</b>.

As the other user mentionned there is different flavor of AMD 3000+ cpu...

Here is the list (from the slowest to the fastest):

NAME|SOCKET|SPEED|CACHE|FSB|MEMORY CHANNEL
Sempron 3000+|A|1.8GHz|256K|333MHz|Depend on MB
Athlon XP 3000+|A|2.166GHz|512K|400MHz|Depend on MB
Athlon 64 3000+|939|1.8GHz|512K|400MHz|Dual Channel
Athlon 64 3000+|754|2.0GHz|512K|400MHz|Single Channel

The Sempron 3000+ is meant to be compared to a Celeron D 3.0GHz (not yet available). The Athlon XP 3000+ is comparable to a P4C 2.6GHz/2.8GHz and both Athlon 64 3000+ are comparable to P4C/E 3.0GHz. In most situation, the extra 200MHz of the Athlon 64 3000+ S754 make this 3000+ faster compared to is Socket939 brother. But the Socket 939 3000+ is the newest flavor of AMD64 made with a 90nm process. These beast can easily reach 2.4 to 2.6GHz on air cooling. Very good overclocker!

Kingston DDR333 2x256Megs
