well, actually sombody is going to buy me one wont cost me a penny! hehe
anyway, the question is. what do i get? hes already offerend to get me a xp2400+ (around £150). but i dont know what stepping it will be.
so, do i
a) let him buy me the 2400+ and mabey get an ATI radeon 9500 next month
or
b) get a lesser chip and the radeon at the same time?
is it worth the chance of getting the 2400+ right now, and what are the worst steppings doing? remember im pretty limited (actually totally limited) as to what multipier i can use (i cant adjust the multi with a k7s5a) so the higher multi of the 2400+ is preferable. and, as im not actually paying anything for it, i dont mind taking the chance as long as i can get a respectalbe o/c out of it
