I know clock speed means crap but I just want to make sure (the cache on the 3300 is pretty weak...). I ripped the 3300 off a hp btw. Also, which overclocks better?
 
Which overclocks better, eh, i would go with the Venice, i dont trust hp's cpu's. But if you arent overclocking, yes the 3300+ is the best
 
I would go for the Venice as well but in the socket 939 form. Socket 754 is going to be phased out soon from what I hear.
 
Yea but phasing out doesn't take long for much of anything in the computer technology world.

He never said it didn't.


3300+ if you're not ocing, 3000+ if you going to oc.
 
I decided not to get a new system yet because my current one was still a year old (though not very good, still useable). I thought the L2 cache on the 3300 would kill it but looks like its fine. I'll stick with my 3300 for now then.
