AMD Sempron 2800+ , Sempron 3100+ and Intel Celeron D 335

Tarinder recently had a look at three budget CPUs, two from AMD and one from Intel, to see if any of them was worth considering if your budget is tight. Here's a snippet.

Which value processor should you choose?. If your budget resembles a shoestring then a bottom-end Sempron (Socket A, obviously) or Celeron D 320 are the natural choices. Both CPUs have a number of cheap-ish supporting motherboards that often feature integrated video as standard. If your budget is set a little higher, say, at £80 for a processor (or ~£150 for a processor/motherboard bundle), AMD's K8-class Sempron 3100+ is comfortably the best choice. It's just a shame that it's been stripped of 64-bit goodness, though.

Check it out in full, here.

was that the max the 3100+ would go to?

ive heard reports of these chips flying to 2.5/6ghz like any other budget range amd, like the durons, they always seemed to clock so much better than the athlons (minus the jihcb or whatever it was) :)

Im probably just being blind here, but where are the UT2003 and Doom 3 benchies ?
