Athlon MP -- really a solid option? by Carlos Moreno
Hi, I'm about to decide to upgrade my machine (currently have an Athlon 1GHz), and the main option in my mind is a dual Athlon, but there is some confusion and doubts about it. AMD's FAQ's talk about considerable advantages for the 2800+ model (Barton). As I seem to understand, the FSB for...
