At the moment i have a AthlonXP 2600 TbredB (333Mhz FSB) and i have the chance to get my hands on a AthlonXP 2600 Barton (333Mhz FSB) (And yes, they do exist ) I dont know which one to go with, as the TbredB has a higher clock rate, but the Barton has more cache. Which one would you go for? The Barton's info is as follows:
