Are Sempron Processors any good?
I was looking at a new PC on Ebay and I saw one at a good price with
a Sempron processor. I read that they won't work for 64 bit and there slower than athlons. My main concern though is are they compatible with everything a Athlon is compatible with? I'm asking because I heard Celeron processors won't run AutoCAD without crashing but Pentiums will. Do Sempron have any such issues? Do they have any downsides besides speed? |
