I use an AMD64X2. They're still heat sources.

Can't be as bad as Pentium 4s though. I'm considering going back to a Celeron and selling my P4. There's not a lot of difference in performance.

If it's a P4-based Celeron, you will notice the performance hit. Those bastards are the shoddy offspring of a gimped architecture.

I had a celeron D, 3GHz it was pretty shitty. But I don't even need the "power" (:gaffaw:) of this Pentium 4, computer does nothing but browse internets and download.

For the record I still have the Celeron it just doesn't work anymore. Plug it into the motherboard and nothing appears on screen...

I think it's the Celeron, the motherboard works fine when the P4's in it. =)

Certainly sounds like it.

Have you thought about getting your hands on a low-end AMD64 rig?

I'm seriously thinking about it now, yes. Although I did spend quite a lot on this Intel motherboard, it supports Quad Core's.

What were you planning on doing with that PC originally?

Core 2 Duo, 2GB RAM, 500GB (2x250gb hdds) and a 8600GTS or 7600GT.

I ended up having a stick of RAM fail and my 320gb hard drive die. :low2:

It's even worse when the shop refuses to refund you, only give you the money to spend in the store on other faulty parts. :low2:
