I went to AMD website already, but I didn't like the way they explain the CPU. So, can someone please tell me something about AMD CPU, the Duron, Althlon, Althlon TB, Althlon XP. The cacah, FSB, etc. Thank You.

Nothing to tell about them a CPU is a CPU ! ... AMD and Intel are both fine CPU's its all up to you just dont think its going to change your life ! the best advice i can give you about AMD CPU's is nothing just make sure you dont use windows 98/Me because they crash they suck and they are both sheet ! .... if you get an Intel or AMD System make sure to use windows XP ..or if you can get XP window 2000 one great thing about AMD is the price ..


! you can get

1 AMD Athlon XP 1900+ CPU's for $626 AU ( AU = Australian ) $1 AU = 52c US lol Or
1 Intel Pentium4 2Ghz CPU $940 AU The price thing is the same for the rest of the

CPUs ass well every AMD CPU is prices better then an Intel and
Your Computer would run faster with a Athlon XP 1900+ CPU in it ...

then a 2ghz P4 click here for compassions CPU SCORE CARD and Athlon XP 1900+ is the fastest home use retail CPU around at the moment !

These are the current ones out there for sale:
Duron has 100 MHz FSB, and 192k cache = 128k L1 cache + 64k L2 cache. (L2 cache full speed of core)
Athlon TBird 133 MHz FSB and 384k cache = 128k L1 cache + 256k L2 cache. (L2 cache full speed of core)
Athlon XP 133 MHz FSB and 384k cache = 128k L1 cache + 256k L2 cache (L2 cache full speed of core). Also has some SSE and a few other features, improved prefech (I think that is right but someone will happily correct me if I am wrong).

The older Athlon K7 FSB @ 100 MHz and 640k cache = 128k L1 cache + 512k cache (running either at 1/2, 2/5, or 1/3 speed of the core)
