Big PC build for uni u c, needs to be the dogs balls 2 take the piss outta roomies ;)
;) Well if cost is a concern look to AMD, it won't run as fast as an o/c'ed 800FSB P4 but will probably cost you half the price for primary components and still be 95% as fast. Maybe watch they don't take the pi$$ outta you for forking out for P4 kit or suggest you fell for the 'more ghz is better' thing ... of course they'll play down the marvel that is HT ... jealousy. You may even find some of them nursing SFF Shuttles and will take the pi$$ out of your huge monstrosity (or your PC LOL). I would say for gaming definitely go for the AthlonXP and spend that bit more on the top gfx card (if you must) ... but you have a 9500PRO which should offer 9700 perf when o/c'ed, very close to 9700PRO/9800 speeds so there's no point. BTW can I have your 9500PRO because I think you really should get a 9800 ... go on I'll give you my Barton based AthlonXP2500+ which can run at 2.3ghz (faster than XP3200+).
