Used computer deal
« on: December 15, 2012, 07:39:47 pm »
Really want your guys' advice.  The guy is actually asking $40 for the P4 and $35 for the Athlon.  It seems like that should be switched except for the lower HDD and Ram specs on the AMD.  If I can't decide I might just buy both of them and have a spare for my next build.

Am I crazy or is the AMD a better computer?  I remember having a P4 HT and it got extremely hot.

Ok, you guys convinced me.  I got them both for $60.  I thought it was a steal.
