i would like to buy tht and run it on my gigabyte 7va mainboard which is socket a, 333fsb etc.... i would also like to knw if i will be able to overclock it by say 300-400mhz? and does the retail version of tht come with a heatsink? thanx for ur help in advance!

also which is better athlon xp or sempron?

personally i's say Athlon XP, more powerful, well the socket A ones are
a little bias though both my systems are Athlon XP and i love them to pieces.

Ummmm ignore the ATI Radeon 9200se
I now have a BFG 6600GT OC
A Pioneer 109 DVD Burner was added even before that and now i have a gig of ddr400 (some cheap stuff)

the Sempron is an Athlon XP , the chip you link to is a 1.66GHz with 256kb L2 cache. Does your computer support 200/400MHz FSB? An Athlon XP Barton would be a better buy for you.

my sysem supports 200-333fsb i think its a gigabyte 7va motherboard!

currently using an amd athlon xp 1700+ over clocked on 333fsb to 1.88ghz designed for 266fsb! its run fine perfectly stable!
