Which one to go with...Duron 700/750/or800mhz?

[wyckedcool]

I was wondering if anyone has an opinion as far as what Duron is the best to get for overclocking and value. Oc'ing is'nt a necessaty for now but probably sometime in the future. That's why I'm kind of leaning toward's the 800mhz. I can still have some speed without oc'ing. Untill I decide to at least.

Is there a big difference between the 700mhz and the 800mhz to warrent spending the extra cash for?

I'm looking to buy one very soon (like now). Any suggestions?

Thank's.............................

they all overclock about the same you might have a small chance of reaching higher with a 750 or 800 but for the slower one it's mostly the luck of the draw.

Duron 750 is still hard to get, or not really available yet, and so far there are no plans for the 800mhz Duron?
Someone correct me if I'm wrong....

Phuz...You can go to tcwo.com They have the Duron 600/650/700/750/800mhz. At least that's what they are showing.

Dark 4ng 3l...I've read and heard alot that they all pretty much oc the same. I'm just trying to figure out which one I want to get. I'm not to concern'd with oc'ing right away. But I may decide to in the near future.

Anyway guy's thank's for your opinion's.

You might consider waiting for the 800Mhz Duron with 128KB level 2 cache.

Definitely get the cheapest Thunderbird you can find, they're faster than the Duron's only only a few bucks more money.
