hi, need a low budget system ive have narrowed it down to 2 options:

1)

Intel Celeron D 341 2.93Ghz Skt 775 FSB533 256kb Cache Emt 64 Retail
DFI Lanparty UT 915P-T12 SKT775 onboard audio SATA LAN ATX


2)

AMD Sempron 3000+ (SDA3000BXBOX) 64 Bit Architecture 1.8Ghz Skt 754 Boxed
Asus K8N Socket-754 nForce3 ATA - Sound Lan USB2 800FSB SATA Retail Box

It's going to be used with 1 stick of 512 pc3200 and for general office/net use. wont be overclocked.
 
any reason y the sempron is recommended, i guess its down to better peformance?
 
hi locutus, will go 30-40 over my budget. would it be really worth it? i mean its just gonna be used for the internet, database and a few simple applications.

changing chip to sempron 3100, it has 256kb l2 cache so should be a lot better then the 3000
 
not too bad i thought the motherboard would cost a lot.

would a standard 350w atx psu work with it?
 
onboard gfx would be sweet, will save 20 odd pound.

is that motherboard on OCUK, am lookin but cant see it yet.
