Sempron 64 or Celeron D?

[sOLId sPOnGe]

I'm putting together a PC for my parents, nothing fancy as the PC will only be used for internet browsing, MS office and maybe transferring photos/videos from cameras etc. Should I go for Sempron 3000 (1.8GHz) or Celeron (2.8Ghz)?
I've only ever used AMD myself, but I do a lot of gaming. I'm not sure which would be best to use for my parents PC as I've never used these CPU's.

Any help would be appreciated: D

I built a PC for my mum and dads with a Sempron 64 2800+. I think it's the best value cpu I've ever bought. It feels like it out peform my old P4 2.8Ghz northwood but that may be the fact it's a fresh XP install on the PC.

This is the setup I got them

AMD Sempron 64 2800+ 1.6GHz CPU and Gigabyte K8N51GMF nForce 6100 Micro, 512mb Corsair value DDR a WD 80 Harddrive. A antec case the one that comes with the 350watt PSU a DVD rom and that 15inch BenQ LCD monitor.

It all came to just under £342.

that Gigabyte K8N51GMF nForce 6100 Micro ATX motherboard it fantastic value. I think it was £45 with onboard Graphics and sound it also supports Sata2 and PCI-Express.

Sempron it is then
That sounds like a decent set-up, just what I'm looking for and just under budget also. Got about 350 quid to spend.

celeron d's arent bad cpu's, but on heat alone i'd go for the sempron

Yeh that's the only thing that was putting me off the Celeron. I'm going for a Micro cube case so don't fancy the Intel due to this
