Advantages: Reliable Disadvantages: Cost? ( see opinion )
...tag given to Intel processors is somewhat unjustified.
For example my PIII 600 in May 2000 - cost £240 running at 800mhz. An 800mhz PIII at the time was approx £500, enough to get a top of the range graphics card and change. Admittedly there are some "hidden" costs to the overclocked version e.g. a good quality mainboard, roomy case for good airflow, and a better heatsink, but I think that these are good practice in building any computer, the other minus is there's no guarantee that the processor you get will sucessfuly overclock.

The installation is pretty simple, as you line up the slotted ends of the processor with the slotted ends of the socket and drop in the processor. Lock it into place and attach the Heat Sink fan. Pls. don’t forget to put on a thermal paste or else you will be having your roasted processor for dinner..
Opinion
The Athlon XP 2400+ is a great performing processor, but it simply doesn't have enough power at this time to beat the Pentium 4 processors. With a new architecture, this processor looks...
