Let us know how you get on, I am close to building a gaming rig for myself just something to play doom3 and some moderate games.
Curious as I know the Athlon XP chip obh, and moving to the Sempron is weird, because I wonder if the current Socket A mobo's will work okay with this processor? I know its a Socket A and Socket A been working for yonks now, but my worry is being a new core is it stable enough yet?
As for price well I am impressed but have a linky now to something interesting for you all to read.
