Righty Oh after much OT from work, I got a spare amount of cash floating about for an upgrade, been wanting to go Dual Core for a while just aint had the money till now I am swaying between these two chips and for the life of me.... I just cant spend that much on a 4400 chip (for the 1mb cache) as much as I would like too.... child, mortgage car.... wife.....

Any suggestions.... I do da lot of AVI to DVD conversion so Multi threading is ideal.... my current CPU is the 3200 Winchester Chip @ 2.2 on air.... anyone care to comment if its worth it and the difference between the 38 and the 42 if any really?

Ta mucho

Vic
