Hey Gang!
I'm buying an MSI KT3 Ultra (non-RAID) and an Athlon CPU. Now, which one I get depends on you guys! Basically, I see that there's very little performance difference between the 1700+, 1800+, and 2000+ (those are the ones within my budget). I've also heard that the MSI board is good for overclocking.
So...with this board and moderate (not TOO extreme) overclocking, which CPU do you think is the best bang for the budget-conscious buck? I'm still using some PC2100 RAM, which is not likely to change any time soon.
Thanks!
