Hi

I am looking for an Athlon XP2800+ CPU to upgrade my PC:

By it seems to me that they ar equite expensive now.

Should Ijust ditch the old MB, and buy a new MB a a newer CPU?

I mean, I can get a
Intel Celeron D 345 3.06 GHz
and a
ASRock P4I65G R2.0 - Mainboard

for the same price as 1 AMD Athlon XP2800+.

And it seems to me that I can reuse my RAM modules.

Any input?
