CPU MB upgrade
I have an Athlon XP 2600 and FIC KT400A mother board, 1GB ram. I was
looking at upgrading to something faster as the Athlon 64's have dropped in price. I can get an Athlon 64 3700+ and Gigabyte GA-K8NF9 mother board for $125 I see 2 versions of the Athlon 64 one is Athlon 64 3700+ 90nm Rev E and the other is Athlon 64 3700+. What is the difference and is it worth while to upgrade at this time. I have a Radeon 9800 Pro video card and I dont play games much. 1 GB of DDR ram. Comments Thank you |

Comments Thank you From the sound of what you write they are the same... 64 3700+. See what type the board needs, I just jumped from the XP2600 (which I still use) to a 4200 x2.
