Pentium D or Athlon 64?

“I’ve narrowed the two suspects down to two suspects…”

Pentium D 2.8GHz - A$395
Athlon 64 3400 - A$289

I do graphics, video and webdesign stuff (Adobe CS, Corel, StudioMX, After Effects). I’ve heard Athlons are a lot faster than Pentiums, so I’m unsure as to whether this low-end Pentium D will be better than a high-end Athlon. I’ve always used Pentium… so I wouldn’t know the difference :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks in advance :slight_smile:
