I need to get a new CPU and mobo this week, but I am on a tight budget. So, I am looking at a low-end Athlon or a high-end Duron. Can anyone enlighten me to the pros & cons of each?
The two that I have found within $4 of each other are:
Athlon TBird 950MHz 200MHz FSB, 256K Cache
Duron 1.3 GHz 200MHz FSB, 192K Cache
Also, any suggestions for a decent low-priced mobo are always welcome. What is the best chipset to look for?
I'm transferring:
192MHz SDRAM
Hercules Prophet II MX 32MB
SB Live!
Thanks in advance for the help.
