| First I just want to thank everyone who replied to my previous post on
upgrading. I'm now debating between either the 2 Ghz Athlon or a 1.6 P4.
Unfortunately the 2+ P4's are still a little to expensive here (Canada) then
I really want to spend right now. The Athlon and P4 1.6 are only a few
dollars different in price. I'll mainly be using it for CAD work 2D and 3D,
and I also use it as a games machine (Metal of Honor and Soldier of fortune
type games). I'm running a k6-2 450 currently, with 448 RAM. It's still a
decent system for CAD, but games is where it's really starting to show it's
age.
I can't see their being a huge difference in performance in CAD work, but
in gaming there might be.
Any thoughts would be great.
Cheers,
Rick
