mmm,im lookin at upgrading but i'm not sure which chip 2 go 4.the duron seems more clockable than the t bird and given that its cheaper how would the duron 850 fair against the equivalent t bird.(after clocking).

get a duron 600 or 700.....there all about the same if you are gonna overclock. the duron is cheap 40-60 bucks for a 600 or 700, you can overclock these up to 1100 + and if you mess it up , little money is lost. a duron will do until this summer when AMD release's a new chip .
