Is it worth the move to go from a P3 800EB to a AMD 1.3GHz?

I went from a 800EB on a Asus P3V4X to a 1.1Ghz on a Abit KT7-Raid. Was there a big speed difference? Not a ton, but I did get about 30%... which isn't bad..... :) hope this helps in your decision.

For "everyday" tasks such as desktop navigation, internet browsing, and word processing, I don't really notice much of a difference beyond 600 Mhz. Unless you're gaming, encoding, compiling, or just want bragging rights, it's probably not worth the upgrade if the system you have now is working fine.
