AMD Athlon XP 2500+, 1.83 GHz (AXDA2500BOX) Retail Processor

Review: As said in other epinions about the Athlon, this year AMD finally is able to take the crown from Intel. I myself have not purchased Intel processors in the last 4 years. I had a K5, K6 and a K6-2. (Time for an upgrade, right?)

Review: And the winner, 85% of the time, in almost all real world tests, is the AMD Athlon. Not only is the 1.2ghz Athlon with DDR faster than a Pentium IV 1.5ghz, but its Cheaper. More than a thousand dollars cheaper.
