Wasssup, long time since i've been on the OC boards
My days of overclocking, as well as having the best hardware, are long over *never say never*. However I think my processor needs an upgrade. My specs are the same as they were 4 years ago, and should be in my signature. If not :
Athlon XP (when they first came out) 2400+
Abit NF-7
1gb Corsair
Radeon 9700 pro
My question is influenced by windows vista performance of course. Ok so on with the question. Is there a socket A CPU compatible with the NF7 that would be worth the upgrade perfomance wise over my current 2400+ ? I was looking at a 3300+ sempron or a 3200+ barton core athlon XP, would the performance boost warrant a 100-150 dollar upgrade?
Thanks again in advance
