Around the same time Dual-Cored Pentium 4 has a reasonale price. Around later 2006 to 2007 Or when AMD Sempron gets 64 bit. If Sempron never gets 64 bit, neither will Celeron.

I don't think 64-bit is that important right now. It will take a while before all programs abandon 32-bit processors and become fully 64-bit. Then we may even see newer ones like 128-bit! :)

That's just the 3.6GHz model. THe 3.0 is around $250. They are still cheaper than the P4 EE or the AMD FX though they may not outperform them.

This is just one of them. http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproductdesc.asp?description=19-116-195&DEPA=1 You can find them on newegg.

I hope they have at least a chance of beating the AMD processors. I like AMD, but it seems boring when only one company is the leader for such a long time. I like competition. :)

Newegg are now selling the new Pentium 4's with 2MB L2 Cache They are identical to the 5xx pentium 4's except of their 2MB L2 Cache and they are all 64-bit processors. They are dubbed with the 6xx numbering system. I wonder how they perform. They are around $200 right now, which I find...

My final decision is AMD Athlon 3500+ 1Gb of Value RAM 2 x 250Gb HDDs and a combination of the stuff you all recommended. Thanks everyone. There is no longer a need to pose since this marks the end of this thread.

thanks to everyone who helped me. I will check this thread later to see if there are any more suggestions. Thanks!

I 'll go with the powersupply you suggested to. Basically, i'll go with ribbon on everything except the graphics card and processor. I wanted a 3500+ and ATi seems to have a pretty good deal on their card Thanks Ribbon for helping me out. :)

I know that i'll go with ribbon on the ram and mobo and bou on the graphics. thanks everyone. :) is there a difference between 130nm and 90nm?

It think i'll go with the mobo and RAM ribbon selected. they seem pretty good.

I'll go with 3500+ nVIDIA GeForce 6800GT 1GB RAM that suits me fine.

I'll go 3500+ Is ASUS a good mobo maker? What is a good nVIDIA graphics card?

Which processor is good for socket 939? I'll need a new monitor.
