AMD XP 3200 vs. AMD 64 3000

[wakeupneo]

About to purchase new pc for gaming...if both systems are going to have an nvidia 5900 card, which would you get...the AMD xp or the AMD 64?

It seems for the buck, the AMD XP would be just as good since hardly anything is 64 bit yet........Please educate me if i am wrong, i know just enough to be dangerous...

Thanks!

There is still a significant differance in performance ...Basically it's b'coz of the differance in cache ...

But then .. i would still consider buying the AthlonXP ... n' wait till the software evolves n' we get a much better choices on the hardware too

N' dude ..plz don't double post
