Barton XP2500+ or XP2800+

[Khrownoss]

Need help with the cpu on my next system.

I don't know much about o/cing, but the 2500+ seems to do very well in that area. Any of you heard what the 2800+ can do? and is it worth the extra $$$.

System:
Abit nf7-s v2.0
Corsair 2x256 XMS3200
WD 80Gig 7200 SE (for now, probably will be getting another)
ATI 9600 Pro 128 meg

thanks for the input.

Get the XP2500+. It'll hit 2800+ speeds (2.083GHz) without a problem, but chanes are more than likely it'll hit 3200+ (2.2GHz)

They'll both yield identical max speeds providing you get a nice stepping so get the 2500+ and use your extra cash to grab an Aeroflow or Gladiator 3 HSF to keep it cool =) I also just grabbed some AS5 which dropped my temps like 4 degrees C
