Advantages: A worthy cheaper rival to Pentium 4
Disadvantages: The AMD heatsink and fan is not good enough, and hard to attach to the motherboard

...website, the AMD XP 3200+ is a 400mhz processor so your processor frequency should be set at 200, this is automatically done with some motherboards or you will have to change the jumper setting manually. Though the core clock speed is set at 2.2Ghz on the AMD XP3200+, with the advanced instruction set contained on the Barton core, this means the AMD XP 3200+ processor is comparable in speed and performance to a Pentium 4 running at 3.2Ghz, hence the XP3200+. The AMD XP3200+ now includes 3DNow! Professional Technology which further enhances your 3D gaming experience, offering faster access to the processor while playing labour intensive 3D games. Already packed with 3DNow! Advanced Technology (contained on previous processor versions) this added feature will give yet another added bonus when playing games. The AMD XP3200+ comes...

It isn't a 2200 mhz chip but is infact a 1800 mhz chip. Why AMD have named their chips in such a way is anyones guess but when you read the full title of the product ( AMD ATHLON XP 2200+ [1.80Ghz] 266HMZ FSB 384KB CACHE 3DNOW PRO - THOROUGHBRED CORE ) it does state quite plainly that it is...
