folks am about to sort out a new pc and am thinking about buying the above athlon chip. however, couple of questions: it says that this chip has a clock speed of 2.0Ghz, and some of the latest games have a recommended speed of, say, 1.8Ghz - does this mean that this chip is only just good enough? - surely not. and how does it compare to a say 3Ghz P4, since they are similarly priced? apologies in advance if being a bit of a muppet, but kind of new to this cheers
