IMO I think you should go with athlon though you obviously want the DDR2 ram. Though I think it will be better if you wait a month for the new AMD socket motherboard hit the streets and buy a much better CPU then the one you suggested. "Why don't you zip it, Zipfero?" - fraich3

Yea, they're alright but imo the pentium M's are still the best value for money pentiums.

Pentium M's also pwn most CPU's in the greater scheme of things. I would suggest waitting a few months (if you can) as both companies will be bringing new tech to the table, prices will drop but more to the point the newer tech will KILL everything else out right now..

I would wait for the Conroe, it will be out very soon (some people in japan has gotten their hands on a few and it REALLY performs great!). Guess I'll need to upgrade soon then... Behold his GLORY! Bow for the technical master!
