Which cpu to keep ?

[dC2006]

Which out of the following would you keep ? A x2 3800+ @ 2.8ghz or a A64 4000+ @ 3.1-3.2 (only had it one day, still fine tuning it). I mostly game and do video editing.

I'd keep the X2 3800= mainly because it's dual core. Flog the 4000+ as it won't be as useful now that more multiple threaded applications are being released.

A 3800 that does 2.8 is quite a rarity isn't it? especially with the later steppings,yeah I'd keep it and sell the Sandiego.

It might be worth hanging on to it for a while until the current high clocking batch have 4000's have dried up,you should get more for it then.
