Im cheap: Im buying IWILL XP333-r, but what processor should i get? XP or Thunderbird?

[Milito01]

Hey guys. Ive just been deciding on what to do with this upgrade im planning. Ive decided on the XP333-r, because of the sound, and the Overclocking ability. I just want some opinions: is it worth spending the extra money to go for an XP processor over an older thunderbird? I dont have a lot of money (college student) and i would like an uprade that will let me multi-task and play games hardcore. Any suggestions? thanks


(btw--im getting $130 from the parents for this computer, the rest is my money, of which there is very little to spend )

An XP 1600+ or 1700+ isn't much more than a higher end thunderbird now so i'd say go with the XP.
