I need processor selection advice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Millerman]

I am thinking of getting either a 450 P3, a AMD K6-3 450 or 500 or a celeron 500. What gonna give me the best performance and what motherboard should I choose with it. I mostly use it for Office and games style computing. Thank you nice people.
I appologise for my slightly out of character behaviour in the last message.

Many thanks for the help

get a celeron 366 and overclock it to 550 - it will be cheaper than all those cpus you listed, and you will get better performance out of it as compared to the others also

Yeah.

btw, I have a p3 450 and its niiiice.....but drdeath is right, you will get better performance the other way.

I am 100% satsified.
I LOVE this setup. And thats what I am gonna suggest /forum/smile.gif
You don't havta go for 618.
589 is easy

I would love to offer some sincere suggestions, but you'll probably just moan at me and insult me.

What Motherboards and Ram are you guys running with the celeries.
Are they any good for games??

I use Asus P2B with C400A. There newest replacement is the Asus P3B-F.

P3-450 w/ BX6 2.0. The 450's can hit 558 alot easier than the 366 celerons hitting 550 (% wise).

I am running on stick of PC100 128 meg ram with the BP6.
