Right about 7 years I build a Computer from nothing it was a Pentium 166mhz
then I upgraded to a 233mhz. Now I have a Celeron 600mhz running all my old
parts and it works well but now I find it slow compared to other machines I
used.

I want to know what I can upgrade to get the full speed it needs to get
ahead with the computer age. I was thinking of a 1ghz since prices are
droping or should I wait and get a P4 1.5 ghz and go with that.

Or can I overclock my 600mhz to at least 1ghz or am I dreaming ??

This is what i have in my machine to give you a idea.

600mhz Celeron
48x CD Rom
HP 9100 CD Writer
2x 1.44mb Floppy Drives
20Gb Hard Drive (Seagate) 7200rpm
8mb Premedia 2 Graphics Card (AGP)
ATX Abit 133mhz Motherboard
Sound Card (Basic) (PCI)
56k Modem (ISA)



I rather stuck to Intel.

I just use my computer home use for Games and Internet stuff.
