I just ordered my DFI Ultra Infinity motherboard from newegg.

I am about to order my CPU, but I see 2400+s O/Cing to 2.5 GHz, and 2600+ doing the same.

Is the 2600 worth the extra money, or should I just get the 2400?

my 2400+ does 2.6 at 2 volts and 2.5 ghz at 1.875 you just have to decide. I think on average the 2500+ does the best.

seeing as how you probably won't fair too much differently, get the 2400+ for $77....the 2500+ is probably the best but i'd rather save the 13 or so bucks.

Thanks guys!


I am going from a 266 FSB Epox 8K3A+ w/ XP 1900+ 266

to:

DFI Ultra Infinity
Mobile 2400+

I think it's a huge jump in performance for under $200!
