Sorry, I wasn't trying to get anything started ^^; As I said, I am a die hard AMD fan, I was just suprised when I found some benchmarks that seemed to show quite a difference between the budget processors.

Here's what I first found...

There is something distorted with those tests... something distorted big time. There is no way a Celeron D is faster then a Athlon 64 2800+ either.

Lol, even Celerons own the mighty Athlon. Check out that memory too, no comparison.

No they don't. The Celeron D has 16KB of L1 Cache, and the Sempron has 128KB I believe. Who gets own now? Not to mention according to the benchmarks I provided, the Sempron is 20% faster then the Celeron D.
