I wish I had've built an AMD Athlon 64 computer instead of Intel.

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...

Which part do you reckon is broken?

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?

[Inferno.]

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.

[Deach]

Just get some shitty laptop.

Potent rig.

Ouch. I've got a HDD thats making all the signs of being on its way out now and that alone is annoying the fuck out of me.

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.
