Are you serious? Id really go for that second one.
Btw: I estimated all the software and hardware on my computer to be worth retail about $6,000nz
It might be more, or maybe a little less, but damn! Ive only spent $455nz on it!

If you aren't capable of building a pc together yourself, go for the 2nd one!

is it true that a 2,4Ghz AMD processor equals an intel 3,2Ghz in preformance?

Let's say that an Athlon 2500+ is equal to a Pentium which theoretically has 2500MHz.

True... But athlon runs faster on some runtimes more so than Pentium.

thanks!
and im going with the 2nd set up, i would have added the sound card but the intergrated one supports 5.1 SS and its 65 $ added on so i might as well go out and buy it myself

If you're talking about Intel Celeron, then I'd rather have Athlon 64, 'cuse Celeron is the worst pease of shiznit made on earth. One game will destroy it

Then I'd ''rather'' have a Athlon 64?
Do you know what you are talking about?

Does that has any relation to what I'm talking about. And if you want to be a smart ass, than go to the cars forum, 'cause there are a lot of people who are just waiting to be "OWNED"

Yes, it does.
You prefer the AMD64 over the Celeron like the Celeron is a piece of shiznit and the 64 is a bit better.
Weirdest comparison ever.

If you were following the topic then you'd prabably would've known that what I was trying to say is that I would choose a 2.4Ghz Athlon over 3.0 or 3.2Ghz Celeron.
Hope you see my point, and if you don't then stop spaming

You never stated the clockspeed of the AMD64 you prefer.
I'm not spamming. Actually, I'm creating great replies that add something to the topic. D:<
