What kind of processor should I get?

[Odm]

I'm looking for a cheap new processor that is in the 1-2 GHz range, preferably cheaper than 200€ (which is a bit more than 200$). I currently have a Pentium 3 866...

you mean u have 200 euros for motherboard and processor right?!

if thats the case get an axp barton 2500+ with an abit bh7 motherboard and u will be set within 200 smacks!

remember though that u will have to smoke some more dough for new ram.. !

remember though that u will have to smoke some more dough for new ram.. ! Well I was kinda hoping I wouldn't have to buy a new motherboard... I don't even know what model I have right now though.

Oh and where can I go to check the price of what you suggested?

in US bucks u can go to newegg.com.. dunno much abt sites accepting euros and such..

in any case u will need a new mobo+cpu+ram+case.. so i think u might just have to increase ur budget there a bit!
