is the 3.0 worth it ?

[ZL1]

Hi

guys I noticed that the 3.0 dropped in price and is more affordable now, still a stretch, but better than before
now Im wondering if its worth it, I was origianally planning on getting a 2.4 or 2.6 and OCing it to 3.5 or so, now would a 3.0 be worth the extra money ? because I was looking at the OCing database and the 3.0 doesnt look so good and if I only get 3.5 out of it then I will be loosing performace over a 2.4 at the same speed (fsb wise + money wise)

what do you guys say ?


please let me know


Thank you
Dan

I've just ordered a P4 2.4GHz/800 and Abit IS7-E mobo. I think it will give me the best bang for the buck. My target is 3.6GHz.

I would go for a 2.4 or 2.6C.
