Hello, Can someone please tell me which cpu is faster and more suited towards gaming? I currently have a sempron 2800+(socket 754) and i've been looking at both of these for a while now. I would think the Athlon would be faster because it is 2.2 ghz compared to the semprons 2.0ghz, but i'm not really sure???

Go with the Athlon 512 KB L2 cache definetly faster.

A sempron is AMD's version of intels celeron.LOL

But the Atholon for sure.make sure to get a Heat sink and fan rated for a faster chip.

Here is a Heatsink and fan for 10.99 with a low Noise level 22.0 dBA.
