Sempron

[soeren]

hey guys... i've one question:

wich is better:

a AMD Sempron 3000+ in Socket A or a Sempron 2600+ in Socket 754 ?


i thnk the Sempron Socket A speed is 2 GHz and the Socket 754 speed is 1,8

Probably the Socket 754. I cant remember whether semprons have the same on die memory controller in that socket, I assume they do. That will make it faster if nothing else.

Sempron 2600+ socket 754 is 1.6 GHz. Socket A Sempron would be better if you already have socket A motherboard, and you can find socket A Sempron cheap. Or get an Athlon XP - it's the same chip, the only difference is in speed rating and branding. If you don't have socket A motherboard then socket 754 Sempron may be better, especially if you're going to run 64-bit OS.
