hi :)

right now i was sitting in my bathtub thinking about a new crunching rig for me :)

but i dunno which cpu i should take.
my 2nd chruncher has a celeron 2,4ghz (stock) putting out ~53cands/day.

limit is 70€ for the cpu.
i was thinking about the

:) AMD Sempron® S462 2500+ (1.75GHz) (Boxed) Socket-462(A) 68,90

does anyone know how that cpu performs ?
celeron 2,4 costs the same.

thanks in advance :)

From what I can understand about the benchies is that raw mghz is king...
good luck :toast:

And that AMD tends to be better than Intel....

sempron is going to crush that celeron.

does that board offer overclocking? U have to find one that allows for good overclocking. BTW, that will probably be a good cruncher.
