Rating: - AMD Athlon 64 3000+, 512KB L2 Cache, 64-bit Processor
I recently built a 64bit system with this processor for someone. When idle Unreal tournament ran 1000 fps and during use at 450 fps Of course this system also had 1GB cas 2 DDR PC3200 and a radeon 9800 pro and a SATA raptor drive, but it was an awesome system. By far blows away the Intel 800Mhz FSB processors which i have been using until the release of the 64bit AMD. Also to the previous statement. if 35% increase was the smallest increase you benchmarked that is awesome. 35% is a high number. For example the difference between pc133 and pc2100 (133Mhz and 266Mhz respectively) is only about a 7% increase in memory performance. 35% is an awesome number. I wonder how long it will take intel to top this one, especially if they are going to go ahead with the plans to emulate 32bit on their new processor instead of native support like AMD
Here is my system spec;
1)Micro-Star K8T800 ATX MBD 754( K8T NEO FIS2R )(great mobo) 2)Radeon 9600XT 3)160 ASATA Maxtor hardisk 4)Liteon DVD burner 5)Athlon 64 3000+ (2Ghz) running at (2.2GHz) with factory cooling fan

Forget P4 this is the CPU is of the Future, you will more love this when u see Windows 64 bit and games, for P4 it will be next upgrade for cpu Windows XP 64 is coming out next summer.
I am about to purchase my system very soon, i have been doing extensive research about my parts...i decided on this cpu, and have narrowed down to two mobo's. the Asus K8V Deluxe, and the MSI K8T NEO. I will probably be going with the Asus. Anyways, those are two very good boards that compliment this cpu.
