I dont overclock much (heck, at all), which Athlon is best for me?

[aphex]

Im lookin at the 2400+, 2200+, and the 2100+...

Im upgrading from a 1.2 and just got a new ti4200 about a month ago.

Which do you reccomend?

if you are not gonna oc, the best you can get
...maybe wit for 2500+ (barton) to be more mainstream

I'd go with the 2400+ since you won't OC at all. That 267Mhz is quite a bit for only $~45 more than the 2100+, and will probably outperform the 2500+ Barton in most benchmarks due to its significant increase in pure clock speeds (1.83GHz vs. 2.0GHz). The 2400+ just had a pretty nice price drop from ~$180 as well.

i'd go with the 2400+
it's around $130-$150 currently

price range? if you're going for value a 1700+ or 2100+ would be great, but highest oc would probably be the 2400+
