RE: AMD Sempron

AMD Sepron processors are intended for use in servers.

AMD Athlon MP processors are aimed for server usage... semprons are mostly and widely used in home and office computers... I myself have a Sempron 2800+ (2.0 GHz) clocked to 2.2 GHz (with no extra cooling) and 512 MB of PC3200 DDR ram... the system works incredibly stable and fast...
the downsides about sempron processors are the small L2 cache (256 KB) since athlon xp has 512... so is the FSB smaller (maximum among semprons is 333 MHz) as on the other hand athlon xp has 400 MHz max...
basically what made me chose sempron is that since AMD stopped manufacturing athlon xp processors some time ago (to concentrate on the semprons and athlon 64s), it was impossible for me to get it from anyhere in scandinavia...
and the last thing is of course the most affordable price...
