...The AMDDuron is a very good alternative to the more expensive Pentium 4 and Athlon processors. Line-moderately the Duron core is based on that of the Athlon and brings therefore also Anna-honouring just as good achievement (closer information see bench mark). For fast plays with complex diagram I would recommend this processor. I have mean AMD tested computers with some running plays, which ran all very good and made no problems.
Generally I am with my Duron1.2Ghz. Very contently. He falls hardly off and mostly only if any program not reliably runs and an error has. The AMDDuron1.2Ghz. runs with a Frontside bus from 2x100 MHz. This processor is meant for all Main boards, which possess a A-base. The Motherboard operates the processor with a tension of approximately 3.3 V. The price for this processor is to be decided a second good...

Advantages: Duron is good for value. Disadvantages: It has none.
...be to buy a Duron. You may want to buy a different processor, but why??? The AMD Thunderbird is only slightly better than the Duron in some aspects and also it is a lot more expensive than the Duron. Celeron as i have said are a waste of money as they as just purely crap. right, back to the mainstream of things, you could go and spend a lot of money on a PIII but why, the PIII is only good at over the 1GHz mark anything before it is ruled by the AMD family of processors so i don't recommend it. So overall for people thinking about upgrading, i highly recommnd the AMDDuron, it's good for value, i mean it's damn good for value, it's better tahn the Celeron and it's also very overclockable. For overclocking, i would look into it and buy a motherboard that will allow you to adjust certain things so you can't just go skimpy on the motherrboard. Atthe...

...AMD is one of the most superscaler, low priced and innovative cpu provider.. one of them is the Duronprocessors series.... that is low priced and powerful....
i own an AMDDuron CPU @ 1GHZ speed... it's performance is superb.... it has the latest core architecture , that supports 200 Mhz DDR front side bus (FSB)... has 128KB of L1 cache but a low L2 cache that is 64KB... but this does't let this cpu down....
technically, it is the younger brother of ATHLON series... the Duronprocessor offers Enhanced 3D Now technology and 3 floating points pipelines that offer more processing speed for applications...
the 3D Now technology is playable for 3D applications and games....
i work on 3D Studio max by using this cpu and the processing power is excellent...
the whopping 200Mhz FSB is the blasty feature of the Duron series... that is useful...
