I take it that the Sempron is the poor cousin and that the barton is the
more heavyweight of the 2..

Anyone care to comment ?

Thanks

The socket A Sempron 3000+ *is* a Barton.
I don't think so it a socket 745 or something... Semptron with some 64
bits instructions but not as much like the xp64 does.
Perhaps you'd like to compare the Sempron to other AMD processors.

What was the n/o of he's CPU?
This was taken from the astra32 program.


here's what looks like a Barton xp2600 And all of it's instructions.

Would you mind sending the info of the semptron and somebody else the
info of the xp64 939 Venice core.

Thank you
 
Thank you for the info....sorry for taking a while to reply....

Im a bit confused......which is faster/better....

athlon xp 3000............athlon sempron 3000


thanks for any info

athlon xp 3000............athlon sempron 3000


thanks for any info

Dave :)
I don't know witch one is faster but i've been told that the semptron
is the replacement of the duron cpu witch it's fsb run at 100/200 and
133/266 of the fastest.

Also it depend on what motherboard you want this cpu the xp is for the
socket A and the semptron 2800 and + is for the socket 743 <-- a other
kind of board.

So if you don't change your motherboard i would get the 3200xp 400fsb
or a 3200xp 333fsb. an xp3200 400fsb cost around 220$ can. And it can
last for a long time if you don't plan to get windows xp 64bits.
 
thanks for the info DDC...

Im using an ASUS A7V8X-X mobo....

Im looking for the fastest that this will take, I don't realy want the
rather expensive jump to 64Bit yet,

Thanks

Dave :)
 
I'm happy with a Barton 3000+ OEM, with 400Mhz FSB. There might be a Barton
3200+ 400Mhz, but rare!!

Hi!


Wise decision.
So far I seen this 64bit ... lame, slow, complicated.

The Barton is IMO the fastest 32bit Athlon XP. Sempron is a cheap
outlet of many cheap outlets before. Barton is a small highlight.
I can remember the area were the AMD are produced as a high quality
outlet for technique (Zeiss, Praktica, Görlitz and more...)

I am still using a camera with hardware of that area. It´s made 1953.
Let´s see if the computer endure as long :-)

A A7V8 with a Barton, Thunderbird, Palomino, Thoroughbred or Duron is a
decent machine.




Best Regards,

Daniel Mandic

P.S.: The picture quality of this 1953 cam is really modern compared to
new digital cams.
 
Thanks Dan.......

It looks like a Barton 3000 coming my way,

Practica eh, my first camera and it took some great photos.....the word
digital wasnt invented then...............

Cheers

Dave :)
 
On that link...just use the pull down tabs to select different
options....good tool for future builds too!!
 
Thanks Norm...Im pretty much sorted as to what to get......by this time next
week.........i should have gone from XP 1600 + with 256 meg ram upto XP 3000
+ and 1 gig memory...so i should see a little difference.

Cheers

Dave :)

Really a fast beast. That extended second level cache makes it
interesting for NT based systems.
256K cache is more for the virtually 32bit PC "IBM and other comapnies"
OS.
Sure, the first level Cache in the Athon series is impressing!!

It would interest me which latency the 2nd level cache of the Barton is.
Programs like CPU-Z can read that out.
Practica eh, my first camera and it took some great photos.....the

You must be joking. It was about some Hz. Pipelining and more. Open
close...
Sure, not in mathematic but physically as well as today.

I mean the output stays the same...

Not to mention the quality of big format cams with many inches of
negative film.
Open Close stays digital, but the Stream......
Never possible with digital. They would have to be infinitely fast, and
I mean really infinitely. Than it would maybe possible to reach analog
quality.
Cheers

Dave :)


I wish you great fun and kind work with your expected Barton Core AMD
Athlon XP Processor.

P.S.: dont forget to cool the beast.
