Help Me Find A New Cpu
<div class="IPBDescription">:( I have tried ..well...</div> Im looking for a new CPU
my amd xp2000 is just fugly and slow.
Im looking for a pentium 4 2.4 and up for maybe 135 ( or something close too)
or a Amd 2600 or 2500 (something close)
Can someone help me? Tigerdirect is expensive, and so is newegg.
where else? Ebay?

if u dont live in the UK just look for MotherBoard Bundles, companies that do these offers are very good!
only AMD processors only.
Plz
I live in the states. Florida to be exact.

im looking at the amd 3000 for 125 but when i click on it, it goes through all the other stuff. Do i need all that other stuff?
Heh, I have an XP1800+ and that is EXACTLY what I plan to do.
While we're on computer questions, how much do you think I can sell this one for?
-1.15mhz processor
-40GB hard drive
-384mb Ram
-Generic Sound card, nothing great
-Radeon 7000 graphics card
(including keyboard, mouse and monitor)
Yeah, it's a bit on the old side.
My dilemma is that i'm actually running my processor at 1.53mhz and using a radeon 9700 pro. The motherboard is actually over-FSB'ed and I don't want to sell someone an over-FSBed mobo (like someone else did to me, and then I wondered why it kept crashing <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif' /><!--endemo--> ).
But then I thought if i'm selling it as a 1.15 (which is the max the mobo can take) there's not much point selling a radeon 9700 pro with it, that would be like selling a mini with a ferrari engine in it or something.
Soooo, my idea is to sell my old computer with the specs above, and the graphics card seperately (which is still worth about ?150 on its own). Or would it be more profitable to sell it as a 1.5, but make sure I tell the buyer about the over-fsb thing?
O.k that looks very confusing when I read it through for myself, I hope you get what my problem is <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/nerd.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd.gif' /><!--endemo-->
*edit* Sorry to derail this thread a little, but I didn't think my problem quite deserved a thread to itself *edit*

I read like 100 reviews on the xp 2500 saying i could overclock it to 3200 easily with no hassle.
Only like 84 bux or 95?
*Edit*
And newegg is not expensive....

This chip is absolutely amazing! It's nothing to get 2.5GHz with able heatsink, and is very capable of more. Doesn't put out near as much heat as your garden-variety Barton cores. It's worth every p...

edit: pentium4's are always going to be expensive, theyre like Nikes, they might feel better but for 100$ less than Kmart brand shoes youll feel better. and youll get just as far just as fast <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
