Amd 64 Athlon 64 3800 + 939 Socket ??

[miked]

Hey Guys,

How does this chip run ? Is it fast and cool , reliable or is there a better Intel chip. Everybody always says but Intel , but just don't know what to do ??

Main use is the internet and the kids use word apps. for school. I saw a Compaq w 17" monitor for $530 w 1 Gig Ram and 250 gb hard drive .

Let me know what you think.

Thanks

see if you can at least invest in a dual core system for AMD or Intel. I don't think it really matters which chip company you get because both are supposedly good right now.

That chip type and a Compaq pc would work out really well for your uses, but I wouldn't expect it to run high quality games unless you have the right parts.
