Which is a good way to go? Currently has the XP 2500, and can get a AMD 754 MB really cheap.

Should he stick with the AMD XP 2500 or spend the $200 and get the Sempron 3100?

I'd personally stick with the 2500+, not enough of a diffrence to go to a sempron 3100+ to me to spend the extra $$

like he said sempron is the celeron of intel... low end... i have a 939 3500 and i love it... spend like 170 even and get a 3000 just spend a few extra bux than what you want to... itll last longer w/o having to worry about upgrading every year

Mid year, the dual core 939 and 940 chips will be out. I think that your upgrade path should be clear now... Wink

Yup, love my 939 3500 Smile

Just waiting to "afford" the second video card for SLI Smile

But it's not for me...for a friend, wants to upgrade but doesn't want to spend that much for a full AMD 64 system. Too bad Grin

I made my dad a 754 system 1gb of nice ram and a 120gb barracuda hdd. for 1017$ mid last year the 754 should be pretty cheap by now.
