Athlon 2800 vs 3000 vs P4 2.66
I'm in the market for an economy PC to hold me over for a year or so.
I see Price Watch lists several vendors that can sell a complete Athlon 3000, 2800 and Intel P4 2.66 system (without OS) for around $200. I do a little video editing, but gaming performance is my main priority. I found a few benchmark comparisons that showed the Athlon 2800 beating the 3000 in several areas, but it wasn't clear whether it was overclocked. Other web sites conflicted with that info & said the 3000 does out-perform the 2800 in most areas, but only marginally. Both Athlon's out-performed the P4 2.66 benchmarks in most areas that matter to me. Cost being equal, is the Athlon 3000 the best best? |
