Hello, everyone,
I ordered one, but it might not be the best option for me. I talked to a friend of mine who has the same machine as mine (Celeron 300A on Abit BH6). He bought a Celeron 566mhz and overclock it to 850Mhz. He just need to buy the chip (around $80 to $90), an adaptor (slot 1 to Socket 370, $10 or so), and a fan. So the total cost to go from 450mhz (overclocked) to 850mhz is only a little over $110. If I go Duron way, I will have to spend $235($75 chip +$140 MB +$20 fan) or more. It makes less sense to me.
Tell me some good reasons that I should convert to AMD camp!! Do you know of any URL comparing the speed? Is Duron much better chip than Celeron?
Thanks for any pointers!!!
