    AMD Athlon XP - Anyone have one?

    Untill today, I've always had Pentiums. I got a Athlon XP 2800+ 2.08GHz today. So far, It seems really damn nice... What's your experience with AMD and which do you perfer, Pentium or Amd?

        Same here. It seems just as fast as the P4 for a lot less money.

                          athlon will always overrule intel! And they even fixed their heat problems...

                                        Running on AMD, just make sure you cool it properly and you wont have any problems.

                                        Take Luck!

                                              I've got a 2500+ I purchased a year ago. I used an original Athlon 700Mhz before that.

                                              I love AMD processors. They permform very well against Intel and the prices are good too.

                                                  I use Athlons as well but their prices aren't really that great anymore.

                                                  2 years ago, a top of the line Athlon XP 2200+ went for under $300 whereas the top of the line P4 at the time went for $600. Now the 3800+ and the FX-53 go for like $800.

                                                      Have had the 1800+ and now the 2400+. Quality chips overall. But keep them cool. When they over heat they over heat. You wont have anything left if it happens unlike intel chips.

                                                        yeah, if you get the wrong heat sync you can get a nice oven in there
