View Single Post - P4 E P4 C and AMD 64???

Dr_Pentium · Rated R

I'm just wondering if one were to buy a cpu right now which would be the best route to go?

I know the P4 E has 1mb cache and the P4 C has 512kb cache, and thee different cores, but what is the advantage of having a Prescott ? Which is better for overclocking.

Then there is the AMD Athlon 64, other than being a 64bit processor what are the advantages of the cpu? I dont see an abundance of 64 bit apps comming out any time soon, and when Windows 64 bit does come out it will still take prolly a year for major apps to be made for 64bit am i right?

So bottom line, if a person wants mad overclocking, and fast performance.

What to go with?

Thanks
