Strengths: Very fast, reliable, stable
Weakness: Not much to overclock unless you're using water cooling.
This indeed is the best Athlon XP. So with the AMD Athlon XP +2500 which is best to overclock it to also a +3200 with no problems depending which motherboard you use for an MSI or ASUS. This will be used good for about a couple of years for Gamers. Till then, enjoy it while it lasts.
Strengths: Everything about this processor is a positive. It is fast, reliable, and even though it is dated technology it still performs as well as most of the newer 64 bit processors.
Weakness: The only weakness is the obvious - dated technology Only "noobs" try to over-clock processors :)
Great processor for games, and pretty much anything else you would need to do on the 32 bit side of things. Processor temps are a little hot by todays standards. However, there are many great cooling devices on the market to manage this amount of heat. Wonderful processor for the price.
Strengths: Good performance at a relatively lower price.
Weakness: Can't think of any.
This is the 4th AMD CPU I have purchased and I am not disappointed at all. It performs better than a comparable P4 CPU and costs less too. Looking forward to putting this CPU to use.
Strengths: Very Fast. Very Stable. Paid $130.00 OEM including shipping and handling. Speed verified with CPU-Z.
Weakness: None
Using a Gigabyte 7VT600P-RZ mobo. Also an excellent value. Motherboard recognized the 400mhz bus for the CPU and RAM without a hitch. Currently running 2254mhz at a 410 bus using the 'top performance' bios setting. CPU temp at 107F with air cooling.
Strengths: Stable at advertised speed; relatively fast; 400 MHz FSB.
Weakness: Very little room for overclocking; runs very hot; outdated technology.
I purchased this CPU hoping to max out what I could from my Socket A motherboard. At first I was rather excited, but then I found out that even using a heavy duty CPU cooler (Aero Jet 7+) and the best thermal compound I knew of (Arctic Silver 5), and even when I left the computer case open, it was still running in high 40's and even higher. I find that unacceptable. Also, compared to Athlon 64...

AMD Barton Athlon XP 3200+
Strengths: cost to performance ratio, reliability, seasoned vendor support
Weakness: heat, older 32 bit unit
BACKROUND: My previous system is 3 years old, (an Athlon 1900XP) and while still very good, is showing its age with newer software. In deciding which CPU/mother board combo to purchase, I spent 4 months watching reviews for AMD 64s and P4s at various sites, while tracking prices at Pricegrabber. Based on my results, I decided on the AMD 64 3500. DECIDING PURCHASE FACTORS: Ultimately, I reversed...
