And people like me to heaps to many, my pc im on now has a electric car fan in the side. Also has a fan at the bottom to blow out, fan/heatsink on the HDD, Another fan blutacked at the upper back just below the Power Supply. Im also putting in a water cooling kit. Just for bragging rights.

Zombie's name says it all!

Why in the heck are you puttting all of that cooling shit on a Celeron system? A PIII and P4 doesn't even need all of that shit let alone a cooler running Celeron. I guess some people like loud PC's. LoL

Neither of my P4 systems even have a fan on the heatsink. The heatsink alone adequatley cools the P4's so why add a fan to make noise? Heck, you can run a P4 with no heatsink at all(it will underclock itself for thermal reasons though..so running with no heatsink is pointless).

It originally said that "Yeah and you licked a dingos' ass." . Did somebody conveniantly remove "you" from the sentence? No matter, I just edited it back to what I originally said. ;P

Nope, I know what I originally said. Somebody fucked with my post(and no I'm not saying it was you). There is only one person here who can edit a post and it not show that he edited it(everybody knows who that is)...or maybe that secretive cunt can hack posts? Fuck, I'm not even worried about it. It isn't like it's the first time my posts have been fucked with.

Anymore an Intel CPU isn't much more than an AMD CPU because of the Intel/AMD price cut wars. From www.pricewatch.com

Athlon XP 2200+ = $145
2.4ghz Pentium 4 Northwood w/533mhz FSB = $200

The 2.4ghz Northwood w/533mhz FSB performs slightly better than the Athlon XP 2200+ in most cases, it has no thermal issues, and is a better quality product...for just a mere $45 more.

Intel isn't really that expensive of a route to go anymore and Intel is definatley the king of reliability/stability. It kinda makes me mad that I bought my 2.53ghz Northwood when it first came out because I paid $530 for the CPU...now it is down to $240. I need to start having patients when purchasing new hardware. ;(

Don't forget to factor in the cost for your RD-RAM, else it won't run like it was born to.

A P4 will run ok with DDR-Ram(on a DDR chipset of course..like the i845G and i845GL). You do need Rambus to get the full potential outta the P4 though.
