Celeron D or Sempron

efx2003 · August 9, 2005, 3:24am

I am going to build a buget computer for my home. The things I am going to use the computer for is to store music, dvd movies and watch dvd movies from the hard drive. It will be some what like a media center. Connecting a tv to the computer also. I was wondering what cpu would be good for this build. Intel Celeron D 325 Prescott 533MHz FSB 256KB L2 Cache Socket 478 2.4 GHZ or AMD Sempron 2800+ Palermo 800MHz FSB 256KB L2 Cache Socket 754 1.6 GHZ. Could somebody give me some advice on what cpu would be good. I was thinking about getting the AMD Sempron 2800. Please help if you can.

Thank You

the AMD sempron blows the pants off a 2.4 celly. Also cheaper.

very true, even though Sempron’s are the cheaper alternative to XP’s they still wax celeron’s !
