Hi, I was wondering would it be worth it to ugrade from a AMD Athlon XP 2400+ to a AMD Athlon 64 3200+?
If so what would be the differences?

Thanks,

Kurt

Speed would be a biggy, you woud need a motherboard upgrade though, and if you are going to get a PCI-E mobo (which is advisable) you would need a new gfx card.

Unfortunately because of the different sockets it can often mean a while new pc more or less.
