Nice try Lasereth, nForce boards only support P4.

But again, nice try.
What? I just talked to my friend, and it seems that he's not running an nForce 2 for obvious reasons. He last told me he had one; I'm not a big Intel fan so I have no idea what the hell their motherboards are equipped with. I checked into it, and as stupid as I feel right now, it looks like Intel makes most of the chipsets for P4 motherboards. There isn't even an nForce 2 chipset for P4s, much less nForces being used only for Pentium 4's like you said. He has an Intel 8 series chipset. Anyway, that's beside the point of my reply.

Oh no, anything but the overclocking argument!

Intel P4 3.2@5.13Ghz by TAM. (Almost 2 Ghz!)
If you would have read my reply, then you wouldn't have posted that. I said that if you are going to spend under $100.00 on a CPU, then go AMD. If more, then go Intel. Let's see...a nice Pentium 4 at 3.2 GHz default running at 800 MHz FSB...add Hyper-Threading on to that...the cheapest one I found is <B>$650.00</B>. Wow. That's a good bit over $100.00. Hence me saying if you want the better processor and you're willing to spend over $100.00, then go Intel. If not, then I STILL say go AMD. The 2100+ overclocked so high costs...let's see, on average, <B>$60.00</B>. Please read my reply if you want to prove me wrong, because my post still makes sense.

Spending more than $100.00 on a CPU? Buy a Pentium 4.

Spending less than $100.00? Buy an Athlon XP.

That's all I have to say.
