title says it, seems my general cycle is about 2.5 years for an upgrade, and im due. Currently Im running an Athlon XP 2800 OCed to 3200, 1gig, 6800gt. Dont get me wrong, everything runs well, but I am a speed freak, so.... Is the extra money worth the extra cache from the x2 4200 to the x2 4400. Had my eye on the 4400 for awhile, been afraid to pull the trigger though, cause my list is almost 3 grand. I can post it if you like.
