I've been thinking about upgrading my now old tbird 800 lately, but the options are scarce actually...
Right now I have a Athlon tbird 800 on an ASUS A7V133 MB with 512megs of PC133 RAM
so I'm torn between the powerfull and costly upgrade to move on to athlon XP with DDR (new CPU, New Board, New RAM) or the cheaper replacement of the tbird by the biggest Duron I can find. (my local stores only have Athlon XP or Duron lately)
Which would you recommend and why? Is the gain of changing the CPU from Athlon 800 to Duron 1300 for example worth it?
Jetfire
Windows 95: n.
32 bit extensions and a graphical shell for a 16 bit patch
to an 8 bit operating system originally coded for a 4 bit
microprocessor, written by a 2 bit company, that can't
stand 1 bit of competition.
