Quote:3.4 GHz Pentium 4I understand you were going for value, but at least try for better than Pentium 4. You probably thought that the 3.4GHz part made it good, but no. Always go for a newer processor. A 2.5 GHz core 2 duo will always be better than a Pentium 4.
The Core 2 Duo E4500 2.2GHz would be a lot better, and its only $20 more (in canada).
So remember for your next comp, look for # of cores rather than the core clock.
Not trying to be an ass, just letting you know.
