What kind of processor should i get?

Out of those - go for the pentium 4 - but the new intel's - core 2 duo's are really kicking a$$ at the moment. - I'd seriously consider looking at a low end one of those even if it's a little over budget.\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819115005

I depends on what you use it for AMD Athlon is better for gaming and Intel Pentium 4 is better if you want to convert DVD to avi or something like that.

I would say the Pentium 3 would be better. But for games I wouldn't really try to play much at all with either of those CPU's.

If you want to try and build one yourself then I would go for a "barebones" PC which is usually just the processor, motherboard, case and fan.  if you want to stay on the cheap side then go for the AMDs and if you want performance then the AMD64 would be right up your ally.  Good Luck

I would get a Pentium Duo Core (At least 1.8Ghz), about 1GB of RAM, 80GB Hard Drive (Preferably 7200RPM) DVD-R, and a 15.4 Truebrite Widescreen display.\n\nBut that's just me.

Definitely go for a strong Pentium 4....however, in my opinion, AMD processors are better for gaming. Also, it's not just the CPU you have to worry about. Flight Simulator runs best with at least 1 GB of RAM. That's what I use, and it runs fine.\n\n\nHope this helps!!!

Yes !! go for P-IV processor with good speen and Intel orignal motherboard. \nYou memory should be 512 MB and higher \nYou may use graphic card for better

Okay always remember this: 64-bit Processors are WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY better than a 32-bit processor becuase they have faster data transfer rate so I always recommend AMD processors with 64 in the title, I don't really care for Intel Processors. Even though this is a bit of topic, heres a question.... Which is better an Intel Pentium 4 with 1. ghz or an AMD Athlon XP 1800+, well the answer is the 1800+, even though the processor speed will be lower than the Intel Pentium but because of higher data transfer speed in AMD CPU's you notice higher speeds in AMD processors, so I recommend always go with the AMD.

well it really depends on what you are going to do with the machine... Every processor has it strengths and weaknesses, sometimes they are designed that way to provide for a specific market.  You could ask and get so many different answers based on peoples personal opinion from thier personal uses of the processor.  A math or physics student, programmer or graphics artists would tell you that the pentium 4 is the best.  Someone who does a lot of wireless stuff and general computing would most likely say the Centrino and someone who does home computing with no real stress in any particular way for the system would say the celeron, but then of course for price those would be different.  Buy a system that does what you need for a good price and is competetive as far as upgradeability.  After all no nead buying a jetski if you don't go to the lake.

dual cores are best for multitasking and p4s are best for gaming. \n\nif you dont already have a pentium motherboard though, please consider getting an AMD brand instead. they are cheaper and less resource intensive.

Yes...all kinds...Here's just one of hundreds...\nhttp://www.devhardware.com/c/b/Computer-Processors/

Condsidering the price and performance i would go for AMD though it is having some heating problems. 64 bit AMD is a good choice.

Try the links below for specifics.  There are just too many different processors and their variants out there to give you a list here, but these links may help you find what you're looking for.

if you are using premiere pro, i would get at least...\n\na pentium 4\n2 gigs of ram\n250 gb hard drive\n\nvideo card isn't as important.  get one with a pci express x16 interface and you'll be fine.

Processor: AMD x2 4800+ OR AMD fx-60 OR Intel Pentium 4 Extreme Edition (or something else)\n\nMotherboard: something that can hold a lot of ram, and support high end graphic cards\n\nIf your gonna use this computer to graphic applications, i would go with a quad Nvidia 7800 GTX. They are so good with crisp images and high refresh rates.

First decide for wat purpose ur going to upgrade.then according to that go for a upgrade.\n\nProcessor: go for Intel P4 3.0Ghz and above if u have anything less than that or go for a AMD Athlon 64 bit 3200+ if ur processor is AMD\n\nMotherboard : for intel based go for Intel 945G Desktop Board\n\nRam:512MB @ 400Mhz\n\nHDD: acc to ur wish\n\nVideo Card :Nvidia Geforce FX 6600 GT\n\nthese all come around 200dollars and its the best available..
