Anyone have any advice on the best CPU in the $80-$130 range? Right now, I'm thinking the AMD 2500+, but I'm looking for other opinions.

I would get a DLT3C 1700+, its a really stellar deal. If you can spend a little more....why not get a 2.4C p4? It'll serve you well.

SVC.com guarunteed stepping 1700+ for 59.99. That's what I got. Currently running at 2300MHZ and faster then an XP2800+.

I'd still have to go with the Barton 2500+. The extra cache does it for me.

I'd take a Barton @ 2.2 over a T-Bred B at 2.3 any day of the week, and twice on Sunday.
