Hello everyone,
Last december I received my computer for christmas. Its a great computer in my eyes but I recently bought a product that needs an AMD Athlon processor 1.6 GHz or higher. Im good with computers but I have limited knowledge of CPU's. This is information about my CPU, I got it from EVEREST.

Im not sure if this is enough information but this is what I was looking at buying, http://www.pricegrabber.com/search_techspe...asterid=8571952 (http://\"http://www.pricegrabber.com/search_techspecs_full.php/masterid=8571952\"). Im trying not to spend over about $120. If you need any more information let me know. Thanks a lot everyone.

whatever you do. don't buy the new cpu. your current cpu is 2000Mhz whitch equals 2Ghz. the minimum is 1.6 and the new one is 1.8. It's best to stick with the one you have or you would be downgrading.

Oh I didn't pay enough attention. the new one is 64 bit and the old one is 32 bit. the new one is an athlon and the old one is a semperon. The new one is kinda better. I dunno 100%. I would do some research before buyin cause I don't know alot about amd's.
