How does AthlonXP 2400+ compare with P4 1.6A OC to 2.13GHz??

[slimbim]

I currently have Pentium 4 1.6A overclocked to 2.13GHz. There is a sale going on where I can get an Athlon 2400+ pretty cheap. How would these two compare?

Thanks,

well if you the 2400 would win, plus you can overclock the athlon 2400 to 2.2ghz or higher at 2.2 a athlon can beat a 2.66 p4

Save even more money by getting a refurbed nForce board at newegg for about $30. Put an 1800+ on there and clock it to 2400+ speeds on a 174MHz fsb. Total cost about $75, add in $15 for a decent heatsink.

You should be able to sell your P4 board and cpu for at least the same $90, no money spent. This cpu will beat the stock 2400+ that only runs on a 133MHz fsb. Not to mention it will smoke the P4 at 2133MHz, all for free.

Yeah 2400+ is going to smokes 2133 P4 procesor. And you can get it for free. I suggest the mobile one, so you can overclock to 2.3 or 2.4GHz, smoking P4C processors.
