What kind of performance differences are there between similarly clocked Celerons and Pentium III's? How about between Athlon Thunderbirds and Durons?
I don't NEED a new system, but if I'm on a budget, does it make sense to buy a socket A motherboard and a $100 processor now, and then upgrade to a better processor later? Or should I wait for the new motherboards for Socket A processors -- 200MHZ FSB vs. 266MHZ FSB?
What kind of a performance difference will there be with these newer (266) motherboards? Any idea when they will out and available?
